Abstract

End-user software development is a growing avocation in every industry and every country. By the middle of the next century, computer literacy and programming skills will be almost as common as reading and writing skills.

There are many exciting possibilities and some potential hazards. The time is now at hand to consider business topics such as ownership of end-user applications and liability in cases of significant errors
