S5 is an HTML-based slideshow system introduced by Eric Meyer (with
help of several other people, including Tantek) back in 2006:

The basic idea is markup like <div class="presentation"> and <div
class="slide"> are read by JavaScript and converted into a usable
slideshow. There are several implementations of S5, but no active
coordination today. Meanwhile slideshow hosting sites, like Scribd,
are moving away from Flash and towards HTML as a publishing format:

The S5 project is in the public domain, and I think it would be
valuable to have a central organization coordinating documentation,
implementations, and potential changes to S5. As I'm sure you've
already guessed, I think microformats.org would be a good place to do
that. Thoughts?
