Nice! I like the form of laws or the like. A pattern form is more reactive than proactive, and I think it is not optimal for describing the right set of attitudes and human behavior I would like from an Architect.
One law I would like too see here is one that captures the way that the Architect communicates her decisions to the ongoing projects. How she should do that very important part of her job, a principle maybe for how to implement changes in organizational architecture decisions, and in such a way that it will not be seen as a burden and an unnecessary evil for the other projects.

Hi Knut.
That is one of the aspects we try to capture in "Thou shalt strive to build a learning organization and culture."
Also have a look at http://wiki.cantara.no/display/IASA/Min+tid+er+allerede+oppbrukt+-+5+grep+til+en+enklere+hverdag+for+arkitekter
If you have any suggestion for changed/added law is appreciated.
