Re: [epf-dev] Architect as supporting role to design_solution

I agree that architecture is an input workproduct.
I don' think that we should be recommending that design is done 
without reference to the architecture - surely that's bad practice?
In the agile world, the architecture often emerges over 
time.  Architecture is definitely considered optional.
At http://www.agilemodeling.com/essays/amdd.htm I've written about 
how some agilists will do architectural modeling early in a  project, 
but on the other hand some choose not to.
So, arguably, there might not even be an architecture model/document 
to ignore on some teams. ;-)
