I don't want to complicate things more than they already are.
I'm an Interaction Designer (have been for only about a year and a
half now) and what brought me here was a combination of two of my
passions: technology and psych.
I'm currently working towards a PhD in Psychology, and I see the
discipline very closely related to UX.
At its best, UX is the domain of multi-disciplinary folks. What are
your thoughts on the different sets of knowledge/skills required of a
*great* user experience designer?

Jumping back to what Will said:
"curriculum development is going to happen with or without us (the
community of IxDA) - so we can either lead, follow, or shut the F*
up."
I think it would be great if IxDA came up with a proposed curriculum
that could be used by schools to build new offerings in the IxD field.
I know it would help some colleagues I've talked to who themselves
have begun to have conversations with various schools in my area
about designing new classes on UX subjects. And the more schools
with solid offerings there are the less of a challenge regional
location will become for those like Fred, Marilia and myself.

In the end, I don't see it scaling. My estimation is that we need to
increase our size in the next 5-10 years by an order of magnitude
10x's greater than our current numbers. I don't see how the
"journy-person" approach can do that. To me this approach would fall
under "organic" that I don't see working for us on Sooooo many
levels.
