Architects and designers don't lay bricks--we do.
I like IBM's term for TWs: Information Developers. It neatly parallels the
well understood term 'software developer'.
I think it also handles Howard's objections to the label 'content
provider'. 'Information' implies more structure and organisation than
'content. 'Developer' suggests more process and rigour than 'provider'.
Cheers
