CSS as the open web application platform.
<li><strong>Open Hardware.</strong> Peter Semmelhack of Bug Labs and K. Venkatesh Prasad of Ford Motor Company will present their vision of combining open 
source hardware and software to create an application platform for the car of the future.
<li><strong>Future Developer Tool Chains.</strong> Mik Kersten, creator of Eclipse Mylyn and CEO of Tasktop Technologies, will talk about the future of ALM 
and how many developers are starting to externalize their development work, just as they are use social networking tools to externalize 
their relationships.
</ul>
</p>
<p>EclipseCon will feature 120 technical sessions and 16 tutorials on a range of Eclipse-oriented topics, including sessions on:
<ul>

Selenium, Sonar, Git, Hudson, Gerrit, Eclipse Mylyn, Eclipse Jubula, Tycho, and more.
