Summary
Topics figuring in this conference include limits to high metallicity, metallicity characteristics of stellar populations, [M/Fe] in bulges and discs, effects of metallicity on star formation and the initial mass function, its relation to planet formation, effects of high metallicity on stellar evolution, yields and galactic chemical evolution, metal-rich H ii regions and metallicities at high redshift.
