I agree with Geoff.
My theory is, if the projector bulb blows out the second before you
go on, and the
spare is also dead (you'd be surprised how common that is), you
should be able to get
your points (or, at least the most important ones) across regardless.
If all there is is sharing of ppt and pdf, might as well do it by
email.

"more strict"????
sorry, but that's just not on - if all we are these days as a
meeting is a powerpoint pack swap session, then we may as well
pack up all this ietf stuff and all go away right now!
I appreciate that powerpoint does enable complex concepts to be
conveyed with some ease, and that it (and its functional
equivalants) is in heavy use these days, but I would be very
worried if we get to a state that Jordi appears to be advocating
where a) powerpoint is a mandatory precondition for presenting at
a WG meeting and b) you must present according to a previously
deposited and circulated powerpoint script. We all do our best in
terms of priorities, schedules and network stability to get this
material up prior to a WG session, and sometimes it all works, and
sometimes, despite our best of intentions, it does not.
