My slides are at github so they are easy to get and improve

https://github.com/jsanz/slides-201209-geocamp

I've used impress.js so the HTML file is just some divs with plain
HTML, easy to translate. Anyway, they are more about the project than
the software inside.

For a very long slides deck like this I would also use that fancy
sphinx output, but as others have said, following the rule of always
writing slides for the last person in the room. :-)
