What do abelian categories form?

Abstract

This is mostly an overview. Given finitely presentable abelian categories A and B, we sketch the construction of an abelian category of continuous functors from A to B that has nice 2-categorical behaviour and gives an explicit model for the stable category of stable functors between the derived categories of A and B. The construction is absolute, thus allows one to recover not only Hochschild but also Mac Lane Cohomology.
