Prague, August 16, 2006 . ... We can decide to merge the GCVS with automatic surveys now. I have already outlined the difficulties and will give some examples illustrating the problems slightly later. Steve Kawaler's suggestion: 'The GCVS personnel might play a role as a `meta-catalog' - a central `index' of survey-based catalogs of variable stars'. ... If we want to have a good meta-catalog, the difficulties I have mentioned in relation to merging the catalogues still should be considered. ...

Abstract -- Abundances of heavy elements decreases with increasing galactocentric distance almost in all disk galaxies. ... To explain this gradient in young objects and in the interstellar gas one has to assume that a typical disk galaxy is an open system, i.e. it expels some synthesized heavy elements into the circumgalactic space and/or accretes intergalactic gas with zero metallicity, with rates of both processes depending on the galactocentric distance. ...
