That's an amazing work thanks!
The ability to turn notebooks into presentations and, now, to share those
slides seamlessly through nbviewer.org is a *big* selling point for the
ipython/jupiter project.
I only have a minor request. Is there a way to disable the slide-to-slide
animation, I (and some other colleagues) find it quite distracting?
Finally, if I have to dream, having the possibility to dump the slides into
a powerpoint/libreoffice presentation would really integrate in a bigger
workflow of creating presentations and reports, not necessary (or
completely) computationally centered.
I recently started using IguanaTex[1] and it allows me to copy/paste latex
equations from the notebook into powerpoint and it is huge time saver for
me since I write the equations in a notebook while writing the code and
then I can copy them to powerpoint and have latex-grade output. This same
approach could allow a simple notebook to powerpoint/libreoffice converter.
