Hi All, My kids got an offer to participate in the Code Monkey competition. I was directed to enter the Matach Web site to start training the monkey (sounds soooo bad!) I was disgusted by the landing page - you take a look and guess why: http://ebag.cet.ac.il/ My question is: Why does the official Education in Israel promote a private company with obvious interest in making money, and so strongly objects FLOSS solutions?! As far as I know, it is common practice in Europe and the United States... How can we change this? How can I check if there's even one line of free software code behind the Code Monkey business?! I'll appreciate any information / opinion on FLOSS solutions in the official Israeli edukation... (typo deliberate).
