* '''Firefox Developer Tools (Jeff Griffiths)''' - The Firefox Developer Tools team will be showing off the latest in web and browser development tools to anyone interested in hacking on web apps, add-ons or the browser itself. | * '''Firefox Developer Tools (Jeff Griffiths)''' - The Firefox Developer Tools team will be showing off the latest in web and browser development tools to anyone interested in hacking on web apps, add-ons or the browser itself. | ||
* '''Firefox Metro (Windows 8) (Yuan Wang)''' - Firefox Metro is a touch-optimized browser built from the ground up for Windows 8. It's designed for comfortable touch browsing and the same time works well with mouse and hardware keyboard. Firefox Metro has a set of unique features to demo, including a clean and visual Start Page, in-context auto-complete screen, on-screen re-positional controls, windows 8 edge gesture-based browsing, etc. | * '''Firefox Metro (Windows 8) (Yuan Wang)''' - Firefox Metro is a touch-optimized browser built from the ground up for Windows 8.

* '''Peep: Secure Python Deployment Without Servers Or Vendor Libs (Chris Lonnen)''' - Historically, deploying Python projects has been a pain in the neck for the security-conscious. First, PyPI lets authors change the contents of their packages without revving their version numbers. Second, any future compromise of PyPI or its caching CDN means you could get a package that's different from the one you signed up for. We have historically solved this by running our own local PyPI servers, which means added burden in both system administration and people administration--figuring out who gets upload rights. Alternately, we sometimes sidestep the problem by creaing vendor libs, but that necessitates a lot of fooling around with VCSes, and it doesn't work so well with compiled libraries. Peep, a thin wrapper around pip, solves this problem. | * '''[https://pypi.python.org/pypi/peep/ Peep: Secure Python Deployment Without Servers Or Vendor Libs] (Chris Lonnen)''' - Historically, deploying Python projects has been a pain in the neck for the security-conscious.

* [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/MathML_Project '''Mozilla MathML Project'''] '''(Frédéric Wang)''' - Are you developing math tools for e-education, e-publishing, accessibility or FirefoxOS? Are you willing to publish your LaTeX papers as real Web pages? Are you tired of the poor quality of math images on Wikipedia and other sites? Do you want to make your math pages really compatible with DOM, Javascript, CSS, HTML or SVG? Have you ever dreamt to use math in e-mails, chat clients, blogs, wikis, search engines or HTML editors? Are you familiar with Arabic notations or handwriting recognition? Then come to our booth to discover how the Mozilla MathML implementation can help and try some cool demos! Let's discuss what currently works and what requires improvements. Whether you need complex equations for your favorite scientific topics or just think elementary math on e-content is important for school children, you will certainly find something interesting!
