Thank you for the nice follow-up session. My special thanks to Amrita and Giselle. My quick observation: Technology is a social change agent. However, mentorn of specific technology in the outcome document has a tacit concern of "Technological Singularity". The information society can go into unending loops, bottom less pits and points of no return without realising. Ideally technology in a generic sense may serve better.
