I’ve also looked at several other XML based presentation tools. Most take some XML markup and then use XSL to transform it into either HTML or SVG. I like the idea but I don’t have the time at the moment to properly investigate them all. In fact, I was thinking what I’d really like is to write the slides in XML (such as Docbook Slides) and then use a transformer to turn it into Flash. Should be possible and perhaps something to hack after I get this first presentation done.
