The paper collects the answers of the authors to the following questions: `` What is the significance of topological approach? Can new chemical concepts be found by a topological approach? What is the status of a chemical concept within a topological approach? Should topological approaches provide measurable quantities? Is it possible to predict the outcome of a topological approach without performing a calculation on a computer? What are new domains for which topological approaches would be useful?
