Yes that's better.

I need to export the same org file with different latex classes and
package options. I do so by using different projects for the same file.

Thanks for the pointer, it works:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun jc-org-publish-project-options ()
  (setq org-publish-project-alist
        `(("TeX"
           :base-directory "./"
           :publishing-directory "./"
           :publishing-function org-beamer-publish-to-latex
           :exclude ".*"
           :latex-class "mpsi_beamer"
           :include , (list (file-name-nondirectory buffer-file-name))
           )
          ( several other projects...)
          )))

(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'jc-org-publish-project-options)
(add-hook 'org-export-before-processing-hook 'jc-org-publish-project-options)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm not sure file-name-nondirectory is necessary. As you can see I need
to hook this function twice:

 - the org-mode-hook is so that the project names are available in any
   org file
 - the org-export-before-processing-hook is to adapt the :include option
   to each org file before export.

That's not very elegant, if someone has any idea.

Julien.
