Did you looked at drools DSL, templates and spreadsheet support?

That is maybe way for your business people. We are using combination
of it for building rules. Technical people are using directly Rule
language. Business people use DSL and excel sheets for specifying
rules. It's easy to understand for business people if you give them
correct limited language or simple excel sheet where they can insert
their rules.
