I'm proud to release version 2.0beta1 of Bruce the Presentation Tool.

Bruce is for programmers who are tired of fighting with presentation tools. In 
its basic form it allows text, code or image pages and even interactive 
Python sessions. It uses pyglet and is easily extensible to add new page 
types.
