Thanks for the feedback. It was my first talk of this kind...

Thanks a lot for the offer! I am currently looking into how to implement the 
KDEMM interfaces layer with NMM. But before I could do that I'd need a lot 
more knowledge on how to use NMM. And that takes some time coding some NMM 
test apps. But since I'm really short on time any help there will be very 
much appreciated.

If you're brave you can try to look into KDEMM at this point already. What it 
takes (if you want it to compile) is a svn checkout of branches/work/kde4 
(you need at least Qt4 and kdelibs4) and branches/work/kdemm (only the kdemm 
subdir is meant to be compiled at this point).

Yes, that's the idea. Though there might be some NMM features that really need 
a specialized API that can be used if present. But I'm not in a position to 
judge that with my current knowledge of NMM.

The KPresenter file is in the svn repository:
