I agree with you that DSLs offer a lot of flexibility. Ideally a DSL would be written in a way to completely abstract the underlying programming language away from the end user/domain expert. Mohamed,

Ideally a DSL would be written in a way to completely abstract the underlying programming language away from the end user/domain expert.

[In a syntax friendly manner for the end-user/peer-developer! what do you think ?

Altough I must say that I don't like the discussions that came up lately about DSL. For me all those examples are just APIs. Maybe the access to them is easier because of the use of dynamic languages like Groovy or Ruby. I wrote such "DSL" years ago, for instance with Python. Nice article.
