The post-main sequence evolution of stars of intermediate or large masses isnotoriously complex. In the recent past, a number of workshops and meetingshave focused on either the Asymptotic Giant Branch of intermediate mass stars,or the evolution of massive stars. But how well defined is the boundary betweenthese categories of objects defined? How would an observer proceed to classifystars into one or the other category? How do objects near the boundary evolve,die, and contribute to the chemical evolution of their environment? During this3-day international workshop, 26 high quality presentations were given byspecialists in the relevant fields of astrophysics, and stimulating discussionsfollowed. It is technically impossible to provide an exhaustive census of theresults and ideas that emerged. In this brief article, we choose to point tokey elements of the workshop, some of which are now the topic of newcollaborations and will lead to publications elsewhere. For the sake ofbrevity, we deliberately cite only the contributors to the workshop and noexternal references. Many bibliographic references can be found in the originalpresentations, which can be retrieved through:http://astro.u-strasbg.fr/observatoire/obs/stars2009/stars2009.html Theprogramme workshop, which includes the titles of the individual contributions,is provided as an appendix.
