Very interesting Peter, there's a lot of good ideas here to ponder. My
first and biggest reaction though, is that while it's common to call
these artifacts "deliverables" I prefer to call them documents. I
deliver software and systems, just as an architect delivers a building
or similar. I don't mean to play semantics, it actually has a lot of
ramifications for our field. If, in the future, better tools make
those documents mostly unnecessary, IAs who define their value by
their documents will face a difficult adaptation (or not). Imagine an
architect who says, "Here's your blueprints and renderings, my work is
done here."

Also, my spell checker wags its finger at me when I type
"deliverables" and I tend to agree with her.

Best,
Victor
