Here's the session that my colleague is proposing for the mobile track. I don't 
want to add it myself as a) it's not my track and b) Eric is a work colleague 
(we may have Parashu as a co-presenter, he's a Cordova committer but may not be 
available)

Cordova: Are Universal Apps enough?

Universal Apps are the promise of applications that can easy run on any Windows 
device, but is that enough? How about running on any Windows device as well as 
any mobile device regardless of operating system? Cordova is an excellent 
example of cross platform technology. Cordova is also THE example of Universal 
App enabler. During this session we will demonstrate what "Universal App" means 
in the context of Cordova. We will look at tooling that can be used to deliver 
on the Cordova vision of Universal App (and Cross Platform) paradigm.

I'm working on ensuring it will be an excellent talk. My concern will be erased 
if I can talk Chris Douglas (Hadoop PMC Chair) to participate ;-)

I'll share the abstract for review.

Probably. ;-)

Do you think it will be an excellent talk, that people will want to (pay to, 
travel to) attend? That's really the only thing I'm concerned about.
