Eugene,
Why the sole attention to "collaborative discussion tools," rather than to tools
that augment human intelligence, and so incorporate all work activity, which
necessarily supports collaboration as a by product. If everything is not
covered, then collaboration will not be advanced, regardless of what tools are
created, at least that is the theory of POIMS....
