+\subsection{Agenda}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item What is elbe?
+\item elbe Target Architectures
+\item elbe Workflow
+\item elbe Features
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{What is elbe?}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item elbe is a tool based on selected components of the Debian infrastructure
+\item it is NOT another embedded Linux distribution
+\item it uses the well maintained Debian binary packages
+\item own application is compiled natively in a virtual machine
+\item no more cross-compiling!
+\end{itemize}
+
+
+The goal of the elbe project is to
+
+make embedded Linux development easier and reproducable
+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{elbe Target Architectures}
+\begin{frame}
+It currently supports the following Target architectures:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item x86 (32 and 64 bit)
+\item powerpc
+\item arm and armhf
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{elbe Workflow}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item use an example XML file and customize it
+\item generate a Buildenvironment
+\item build Debian Binary Package(s) from your own Application
+\item add the custom Packages to the XML file
+\item build the Target Image
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{elbe Features / elbe Output}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Buildenvironment for native development
+
+      inside a qemu virtual machine
+\item ready to use Target Image
+
+(tar.gz, cpio, UBI, HD/SDcard)
+\item Licence Informations for all used packages
+\item Source and Binary Packages as ISO Image,
+
+usable for regeneration builds
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{elbe Features}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item different modes for Target Image generation
+\item finetuning rules in XML
+\item archive.tar.bz2 for config files embedded in XML
+\item Update checker
+\item Emdebian (grip) Packages can be used
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+

+\end{frame}
+
+\subsection{Conclusion}
+\begin{frame}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item focus on your application
+\item reuse the power of Debian, don't build everything again
+\item reproduce your Target Image even in 10 years ore more
+\item it's possible to build full featured Debian Images
+\item and optimized Images without dpkg/apt functionality
+\end{itemize}
