As part of the next Inference release, we've started working on Inference in PowerPoint. Similar to Inference in Word, Inference in PowerPoint will enable you to assemble dynamic Microsoft PowerPoint presentations containing your data, objects, IronPython/IronRuby code, and text annotations (commentary). When executed, Inference in PowerPoint will run your IronPython/IronRuby code and generate a Results Document presentation that contains textual, numerical and graphic output of scripting commands in addition to formatted text annotations.

The next Inference release is due out this summer. Here's a screenshot of our latest build:

If you have any thoughts as to what you'd like to see in the Inference in PowerPoint module, feel free to comment to this blog post or shoot me an email at development@bluereference.com.
