My account has been created today and want to thank you
for your confidence. Allow me to introduce myself,
so you know whom you elected.

I have been studied chemistry, where I did my first 
programming exercises on a DEC Vax using FORTRAN 77.
Trying to combine computers and chemistry I did number
crunching for quantum chemistry.

Currently I work for a government owned company in the
chemistry information field. We are involved in a major
eLearning project for German chemistry students
(http://www.vs-c.de). 
There are currently approximately 150 authors at
16 different universities all across Germany, in
Switzerland and England. It was soon discovered, that no
available system would fit the  needs, so we started to develop 
our own system. 

The front end of the system is cocoon for display and the
XML Spy (or any other XML editor) and some special purpose
tools for editing. The repository was CVS, but it was to technical
for some authors, so it was  replaced by slide/WebDAV.
Currently there are about 40,000 documents and 18 GB of
data in the slide repository.

So my interest in slide is not focused on new features, but keep
the repository running and hunt bugs.
