In this symposium on Wolf-Rayet stars, binary aspects received
ample attention, notably because of the recognition that many
observations of spectral and photometric variability at all
accessible wavelengths are related to colliding winds or other
forms of wind interaction. The basic structure of the conference
and its proceedings is: basic parameters and general properties of
WR stars; state of the art model atmospheres for WR stars,
anisotropic mass loss and disk formation of WR stars, properties of
WR binaries; influence of stellar winds on mass transfer in hot
massive binary evolution; dust formation near WR stars and other
circumstellar phenomena; and hydrodynamics and high-energy physics
of colliding winds in WR+O binaries and of WR winds interacting
with compact objects. Within this framework 20 invited reviews, 38
invited oral contributions, and 76 poster papers were presented at
the Symposium, entertaining 111 astronomers from 24 countries.
These proceedings provide up-to-date information on all aspects of
Wolf-Rayet atmospheres, binaries, and colliding winds.
