Dear André,
Just a quick note on something you said,
*In this debate, we spoke a lot about the term "design", since we areall
"experts" in design. In general, the definitions of the term aremature in
this group and lead to some consensus.*
I don’t think that this list has reached a consensus regarding the
definition of ‘design’ at all. If you go through the list’s archives you
will find the issue being discussed quite regularly. Some list members even
hold substantially different opinions of what design is.
Debates regarding the definition of ‘design’ are often long, intense, and
time-consuming, which is probably why — when someone proposes a definition
(such as Simon’s) — it might pass unchallenged, but that doesn't mean
we've reached a consensus. I realized you were careful enough to precede
"consensus" with the word "some" but I would argue that even "some
consensus" is far from being reached.
'best,
