DocBook Slides for DocBook 5 / XSLT2 stylesheets?

Hi -

Is DocBook-Slides going to be adapted to DocBook 5 anytime
soon
(together with the style sheets)?

I have been putting off some serious slide content
refactoring, and
would really lauch myself into it if I could do it already
in DocBook 5.

One reason to ask is to indicate that, yes, there are some
serious
DocBook-Slides power users out there who are eager to use
(and
road-test!) the next-generation schema and stylesheets
(XSLT2!?).

Judging by the lack of response, I'd suggest you are in
prime position
to look at them Justus?

I've used them, and didn't like the output - especially the
print.
If you want to develop some, I'll add them, or a link to
your 
implementation,
to the docbook faq?

Norm started some work on an XSLT 2.0 slides stylesheet a
while
back. I've not tried it myself, but if you want to take a
look at
it, it's publicly available from the project svn repository:

  https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/docbook/trunk
/slides2/html/

But if you run into any problems with it, I don't think you
can
probably expect to get any support for it at this point.

I just checked in the latest edits that I had made. I've
successfully
used them for a couple of presentations.
