May 13, 2011 at 23:42 comment added Steve Lack Yes, Mike, quite right - the equivalence of discrete fibrations and codiscrete cofibrations is an exactness condition which will carry over to Cat-valued presheaves. And I'd guess Grothendieck 2-toposes should work as well, although I haven't checked the details.
May 13, 2011 at 13:20 comment added Mike Shulman What about 2-categories of Cat-valued (2-)presheaves? Since all these notions can be defined in terms of limits and colimits, I would expect them to carry over pointwise. And if that works, then what about Grothendieck 2-topoi (left exact reflective sub-2/bi-categories of Cat-valued presheaf categories)?

May 11, 2011 at 23:35 comment added Steve Lack First question: yes (sorry, that was unclear). Second question: no (but if I think of one I'll let you know).
May 11, 2011 at 17:51 comment added Finn Lawler OK, thanks. So the correspondence in the case of Cat really is a red herring. When you say 'the 2-category A has an underlying ordinary category which is discrete', do you mean by A the total 2-category of a fibration from 1 to 1? Also, (I know it's unlikely but) are there, to your knowledge, any references that compare the two notions in detail?
