Hello,
I’ve published an update to Slide Show (S9) - a Ruby gem that lets
you create slide shows and author slides in plain text using a
wiki-style markup language that’s easy-to-write and easy-to-read.
What’s new? You can now author your slides in Markdown.
You can find two samples online in Markdown:
o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/samples/rest.text
o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/samples/microformats.text
And the matching slide shows are online at:
o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/rest.html
o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/microformats.html
Note, Slide Show (S9) is now also compatible with the Opera Show
Format and, thus, works with the Opera browser without requiring any
plugins (it’s all built-in - just press F11 to get started and page
up/down to flip through the slide show).
Finally, if anyone is interested in Microformats for slide shows
(e.g. hSlide, hShow or similar) I invite you to join the conversation
on the new microformats mailing list @
http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-new to work
out a first draft.

Questions and comments welcome.
Cheers.
