I've been trying hard not to be snarky :-) It's pretty amazing how old things become new as a combination of 1) people not knowing about it and 2) it being given a new name. The first one is a bit sad and speaks volumes about our collective lack of education as an industry. I gladly include my self in that indictment by the way. I only console myself with the fact that the things I don't know (but should) is probably greater than what could fill my (mostly useless) 4 year CS degree. Of course I graduated a long time ago... I'm a bit worried that as people get into this industry in less traditional ways we are gradually losing the sight of the fact that there really is something important to learn.
