"Is this the price we pay for growing popularity of Usability and User-Centered Design?"
Yes, unfortunately. On the plus side, this has led to an increase in self-perpetuated knowledge as applied to perceived value. In other words - people know they want it, but they may not be completely familiar with the specific processes or deliverables. It's a start. It can still be frustrating, though. At a recent seminar, our moderator described the difficulties involving UX practitioners throughout the project lifecycle. Stakeholders seem content to request something like "just give me a half-pound of that there usability stuff," usually too late in the game. Again, it's a start. Great thread, thanks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
