OK, I skipped RC2 because of the PowerPoint problems, so here goes for RC3.
First off, great improvements over the Bible verses, however I'm afraid there is always a "but"...
The font size can be a bit small. (For PowerPoint we have to use point size 36 for everyone to see it). I set my font proportion to biggest, but it seems the line breaks occur too late in the line for this to make any impact.
I'm afraid that I'm going to get complaints over how the verse numbers are displayed. Can the chapter only be displayed if the chapter actually changes halfway through? Can the verses be displayed as superscript instead of in []? Perhaps put the chapter (and verses) at the bottom with the book name you are currently displaying.
My preacher might say "I will now read the first 10 verses of the book of x, chapter y". So I select all 10 verses and they all appear in font size 0 on one slide. It would be great if a configuration option for the number of verses could be specified. So if I asked for 3 verses a slide, you would create 4 pages.
Powerpoint on the whole works fine for me now. But still a few minor niggles.
When loading a PowerPoint (from the file open button on the Presentation tab) we ideally need an hourglass, since there is this unnerving pause when I'm not sure if something is happening.
I know (from experience of programming with PowerPoint) that trying to keep the application in sync with what the user may decide to do in the PowerPoint window is difficult, but it would be helpful if a few basic checks are made. E.g. if the PowerPoint window is closed with 'Esc', then check for this and reopen if a slide change is requested in the openlp.org window.
When changing the PowerPoint slide, can you update the Congregation screen prior to the operator view. There are times when the slide change has to be instantaneous but at the moment openlp.org appears to be pausing whilst it updates the operator display.
When moving from PowerPoint back to a standard song/Bible verse, the PPT application window sometimes appears in front of the openlp.org. Can it be minimized?

In addition:
Pressing "Page Down" from the end of the song/powerpoint doesn't take the user to the next item in the order of service.
If would help to highlight the current item in the Order of Service window.

Sorry it's a bit of a long list, but I just want to say that openlp.org is a great application so I don't want this to come across as too negative! I just want to be able to win over my Church so we can adopt it!
