      Interesting. The Chrome spell checker red-lined it, and dictionary.com doesn't have an entry. It seems like it ought to be a word though! Marc

                ARCHITECTUALIZED, that's the word. There was post about this a while ago. Ok, maybe it is not the same, but it is still a cool word. :)

                      Definition: architected - idiot who forgot how to code, just took a PMP class and is trying to move to management but cannot shake off the fetters of underlings asking him/her for technical specifications.

                                    Ghastly word. I also hate the use of "authored" where people meant "wrote". Where will this creeping use of jobs as verbs end: "The officer policemanned the criminal."? "The fireman firemanned the fire."? "The lollipop lady lollipopped the children."? Designed is a perfectly acceptable word, why the need for "architected"?
