I agree with you in general. However, I assumed the inquiry was based on the assumption that the non-programmer had the aptitude to do high level programming. I do not think we are expecting this type of high level programmers to open Visual Studio or Eclipse and be able to develop applications. In my experience, I have come across people (maybe a few) who could successfully do that if they had the right tools. So, I would say power to them and ask why not.

Do you really intend to develop a serious application without real developers? I wouldn't want to go down that road. We are still recovering from having so many application interfaces developed without real interaction designers; wouldn't this be a similar situation? Remember, the devil is in the [gory programming] details. Richard E.
