Writing contracts as a source of incomes

Hadrien

Hello world.

Writing contracts will become more & more complex over time, as libraries of scripts/functions will emerge; the needs will expend and will require full time personal on contract scripting&control.

Can be foreseen two aspects in parallel:

1- The development of several software dedicated to contracts scripting assistance (with fancy interfaces and so on)

And more interestingly:

2- The emergence of a new line of business: "Contracts scripting services"
An individual (or a Company, or Organisation; etc) contracts a team of specialists, will provide the terms & conditions of the contract in natural language (or most probably in "lawyer"), and the team will script against a fee the contract for it to run on Ethereum.

In this line of anticipation, what steps can we already take, as a community, to ensure continuity of operations & emergence of those activities?

Thank you for your time and attention.

Regards

Hadrien

Re #1, for clarity we are working on baking in decentralized GUIs functionality to act as frontends for contracts, using QML and HTML/CSS . They will be distributed via torrent and browsable as 'dapps' through an appstore-like interface.

I hope it takes less work(i mean over-all-people&time, it means work for developing and maintaining the things, of course) than lawyers and financial systems take now.. And it probably will, usually you'd just take one of the existing well-studied contracts.

Also, not sure how well it will fit in the alley of lawyers in the first place, and if this approach is essentially just trying to shoehorn the old system in the new ones.

@Stephan_Tual is there a wiki or documentation where I could read more about these GUIs?
