:The world of Web technologies continues to progress rapidly today. As Web technologies become more standardized such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, and as unexpected bugs and incompatibilities between browsers are reduced it is now possible to build very sophisticated and complex applications using only Web technologies.

==== Viewing from the Designer's Perspective - The Potentials of Open Source Products: OLIVE ====

;Presenter
:NOSIGNER

;Overview
:Designing products using Open Source has the potential to build new relations between users and designers. Wiki service OLIVE was launched just 40 hours after the earthquake hit Northeast Japan in March 2011 with the goal of collecting Open Source product designs to support victims. OLIVE succeeded in forming a large community, recording 1 million page views on their website in just one month and has collected approximately 200 design ideas to date. We will discuss the potential of Open Source products through presenting the accomplishments of OLIVE, and the methodologies for inspiring design ideas.

==== The Current and Future of Web Standards ====
;Presenter
:Tantek Çelik, Mozilla Corporation

;Overview
:Well recognized as one of the main editors of CSS as well as a core developer of IE for Macintosh in his Microsoft era, Tantek Çelik is one of the most influential leaders of the evolving Web technologies. From his perspective as a long-term contributor to the standardization of Web technologies, Tantek will outline the differences in standardization process amongst W3C, WHATWG, as well as microformats.org which was he founded. In addition, Tantek will discuss standardization in the future as well as the standardization activities he is currently engaged in at Mozilla.

==== The Reborn Mobile Version of Firefox ====
;Presenter
:Mark Finkle, Mozilla Corporation

;Overview
:Since the Android version of Firefox is implemented using the same rendering engine as the desktop version of Firefox it promotes one open Web consistently displayed, rather than a fragmented and closed mobile Web. However, by introducing a Native UI for Android great performance improvements, particularly with regards to startup time and scrolling performance, have been achieved. In this session, Mark Finkle will give a sneak preview of the future of the mobile version of Firefox, such as the greatly revamped user interface, optimization for tablets, and future development plans.

==== Power of Open and Beyond ====
;Presenter
:Dominick Chen, Creative Commons Japan

;Overview
:Starting with the idea of copyleft and taking inspiration from the software culture of Open Source, Creative Commons promoted a license model and many cultural projects that freed the content ecosystem from the gravity of copyrights around the world. Today, after 10 years of practice, over 500 million pieces of open content available on the Internet truly constitute a world we can call an ecosystem. As a result, through the dynamic of Internet culture, creativity and learning are closely linked and cultural and social value can now be scientifically evaluated. During this presentation, many practical examples including those from those fields not directly related to Creative Commons will be discussed as Dominick Chen of Creative Commons Japan illustrates what lies behind openness for all of us.

=== 15:30 - 16:20 (JST) ===
22:30 - 23:20 (PST), 1:30 - 2:20 (EST), 6:30 - 7:20 (WET) 

==== The Web Application Store Strategy of Mozilla – Creating a Truly “Open” Ecosystem ====
;Presenter
:Tomoya Asai, Mozilla Japan

;Overview
:The Web is becoming an OS itself as sophisticated applications can now be created by entirely from Open Web technologies. However there remain no open, vendor-independent platforms for distributing, authenticating, and receiving payment for such applications. In this session Tomoya Asai will explain why Mozilla is developing application store technology, what kind of system it is, and how developers can use it to distribute applications.

==== pdf.js - Challenging the Limits of HTML5 and JavaScript ====
;Presenter
:Andreas Gal, Mozilla Corporation
:Chris Jones, Mozilla Corporation

;Overview
:Until recently, PDF documents on the Web have been displayed by a plugin written in native code. However, since plugins frequently become the cause of security holes, Mozilla is developing a library called “pdf.js”  which can draw PDF documents using only JavaScript. In this session Andreas Gal and Chris Jones will discuss what kind of techniques are used to implement heavy-weight functions such as rendering PDF documents with only JavaScript. They will also explain the limitations of Canvas' APIs and how Firefox's implementation of these APIs has been improved to overcome these limitations.

==== Building a generation of "web maker" — The Way Mozilla Perceives Education ====
;Presenter
:Mark Surman, Mozilla Foundation

;Overview
:While we may have been viewing the Web as contents for consumption, the Web experience will become much richer if each user not only utilizes but also creates the Web and becomes a “web maker.”  Under the mission of promoting the openness of the Web and innovation on the Web, Mozilla has been organizing a variety of public benefit activities to this end. For example, Mozilla is providing learning programs and software to teach necessary Web technologies in order to become a “web maker.” Mozilla has also created Web literacy badge to recognize acquired skills. This session introduces Mozilla's new approach to seamlessly integrate education and society.
