Hi Carsten and all,

Beamer export sounds fantastic.  I've been using org mode for this sort 
of thing a lot over the last year--all of my lecture notes are typed up 
as an org file, and I used org mode to draft slides for a presentation 
over the summer, so an automated process would be helpful.

But, I'm not sure that it makes sense to hardcode the frames as a level 
2 headline (or any level headline); I find it easier to define a slide 
to be any headline that has no subheadings, regardless of its 
depth---the ability to outline the structure of a presentation as 
appropriate and then fill in the details (ie the slides) later is (imho) 
the reason to use org-mode for this sort of task in the first place. 
Columns, etc., could then be handled by using properties of the last 
headline, or as a special list.

This approach might also make it easier to export the same file to other 
formats (i.e. the existing html format).  I imagine that this would be a 
little harder to program, though, and is just my two cents.
