Massimo, I used the markmin tools you forwarded. I had a Web2py instance running on my lappy and it served up the slides as static pages. There weren't many slides.
The talk covered the admin app and the DAL and models using a dogs application. These were all on the menu. This pretty much consumed my time slot. I finished off by showing smartgrid. I made sure to show them the controller code, too. I plan to spiff up the slide set some, after which I'll bundle the application and contribute it as a slice.
