A brief review and summary of results from Volumes 1 (-90° to -53°) and 2 (-53° to -40°) of the University of Michigan Catalogue of Two-Dimensional Spectral Types for the HP Stars is given. Plans for the classification of the remaining southern HD stars are outlined. Future plans for observation and classification of northern stars are discussed, including the problem of whether to limit such classification to the HD stars. More general remarks about spectral classification in the future, especially for fainter stars, conclude the paper.
