Hi Greg,

Great suggestions.  slidePresenter is in version 0.03 by now but is 
essentially an ammateur hack.  I'm really impressed with Slidy, 
especially when I see ( <http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy/#(15)> ) 
that it's got a vision to include exactly the "distributed audience" 
features I'm looking for.  Perhaps I can use it as my excuse to rid the 
world of yet another slideshow program.

Thanks,
Allen
