Just a typo in README: present.org, instead of presentation.org.

Quite promising for the rest, really!  Thanks once again, for all add-ons you
provide us with...

On the glitches side:

- some titles are truncated because of their size
- I did not see any image
- Beamer's frame level is not supported (ending up with a couple of really
  long slides)
- having to scroll within a slide seems to edit the Org file somehow
- "edited" Org file is not undo-able because of visibility troubles
- error "outline-back-to-heading: before first heading"

But, once again, it gives a lot of hope to get right to the point of loosing a
less time as possible, and lets us work on the contents of our file.

Best regards,
  Seb
