Decoupling architects from the development process has a much longer 
history than Java: I first ran into sort of mess around 1977 in a COBOL 
shop. Those guys were so decoupled that they trashed their copies of 
design project documents as soon as they'd handed the project over to the 
developers. That way of working didn't work then and doesn't now.

Now add UML to the mix, managers who think that a high level UML 
description of each process is all a developer needs and eliminate all 
feedback to the design team from the devs: the result is most unlikely to 
be a working system. UML is OK if used properly, but its all too easy for 
non-technical managers and designers, who are outside the development 
loop, to convince themselves that once the high-level UML has been 
produced, their job is done. In reality its barely started.

Ditto.
