Granted. That's what IT architects are for. Unfortunately, very few projects have them, so programmers are expected to fill the role; one for which they are poorly qualified.

Fairly often, the architects you get aren't qualified to fill the role either.

Submission + - New Patent for keyboard video game control

Submitted by deathy_epl+ccs on Tuesday June 12, 2007 @01:04AM

I first read about this over at GameSetWatch
