We are going to struggle to Interroperate with anything all the while Architecture in the computer world remains poorly understood by all and less than agreed upon as a discipline.

We need to study how the RIBA created real world Architects and develop a real, studied for Is Architecture profession With common terms and practices. People may build small buildings without using an Architect but they would not consider creating anything iconic Without an Architect.

Without professional respect standards alone will not cut

Agreed - computing is still "a profession of hobbyists" or so someone said to me a whilke back! There is much we can learn from the other professions. There's been much activity in certification over the past few years both in UK with the NCC and with the vendors (eg. MCA). What's also been happening is in the community space with groups like the IASA who are looking to move into certification too ...

But I guess we should be careful what we wish for ...:)!
