I still can't figure out how is this activity different than designing
'Interfaces' or 'User Experience' as compared to hardliner's POV of
'Information Architecture'. How is 'need-based architecture' any different
than User Interaface Framework?

In my observation there are set of people among us who feel great naming
their daily work differently, very much like how fashion works.

I have met people who are going even beyond our discussion.. Guess what’s
the next thing you may want to be called (?) - Knowledge Architects. And
then those ‘UI’ and ‘IA’ guys will envy your work:)
