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:

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).
