Ok, let see. In several countries the use of the "title" engineer applies to people that achieved a certain technical degree, I'm not sure that applies uniformly but in Latin America using the engineer title without having achieved that degree is illegal.
when i worked for LSUC, the equivilent of a state bar association, i think, i was asked to dream up a new title for my role, and asked for "Network Architect". it was rejected for the reason that "it bestowes upon you a professional designation for which you are not qualified." i think my title ended up being "Systems and Network Engineering Manager". -- Jim Mercer jim () reptiles org +92 336 520-4504 "I'm Prime Minister of Canada, I live here and I'm going to take a leak." - Lester Pearson in 1967, during a meeting between himself and President Lyndon Johnson, whose Secret Service detail had taken over Pearson's cottage retreat.
