The roadmap/goals for post-MozFest 2014 pique my interest. The following especially:

"Users will be able to read from sensors and control motors, LEDs, solenoids, slave boards, etc"

That will make it easier for people to start playing with electronics from the browser on their Raspberry Pi. Chrome has a serial API, which I think is only accessible to chrome extensions - https://developer.chrome.com/apps/serial. If Firefox OS on the Pi comes with no-limits unlike Chrome, then it should be fun to play with.

Looking forward to it ~!
