>As it seems to me, the whole idea of design patterns was someone's need to classify procedures that good programmers use to create apps, and hopefully make them re-usable by others. This way, lots of good design tricks evolved into some kind of theory - but then, we're all programmers here, and I wouldn't be surprised if new design patterns may emerge here. IOW, if someone's design doesn't fit into any of design patterns (or, worse, seems like a violation of some of them), and yet it proves to be successfull - shouldn't it be recognized as a new pattern?
SURE!!! Thats the point.....a design pattern is recognized as valid if it can be reapplied over and over to the same general situation.
