http://97-things.near-time.net/wiki/97-things-every-software-architect-should-know-the-book
This wiki was developed and published in a book available from O’Reilly Press. So far it’s a great read put together by the collective experiences of many seasoned developers. My own favorite so far is: Simplicity before generality, use before reuse.
I think the idea of capturing this all by wiki is entirely awesome. I just wish they would keep it going, I’m certain there is more than 97 things I should know ;)
BTW, Thanks to From 9 till 2 for bringing this to my attention.
