@Jason "It surprises me that this discussion has focused so much on what he calls the job, then the relationship he describes between designers and developers."
Why is that surprising??? We (us, the industry, etc.) have to agree on a name for our role. Without it we lack credibility and it makes it very difficult for the simple things like job hunting, etc. You know what an architect does. You know what a dentist does. When I hire people my HR dept (and we're a 300 company) can't decide what their payscale should be because they have no good data or understanding about what usability / user interface designers do! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
