Patterns

With the build cycle now mature enough to be build code and generate installers my attention is turning to code and to design. The final week to Christmas will be quite heavy as I POC some designs and ideas around patterns. Sam has a post on a design talk that is being given,  do you feel the subject is hot right now? are you using patterns? What tools are you using to implement patterns, help improve your work with patterns? What resources are you using?

Patterns are moving from a hot topic to assumed knowledge. Although there will always be rediscoveries of current knowledge.
From my point of view patterns are a communication mechanism (i.e. jargon) that lets developers talk in short hand. You shouldn't be setting out to use Observer, rather you discover you have a need for something like Observer so you may change your code to conform to the Observer design or not.
