News to me as well. I will see what I can find out from KEBS about this as this is the first I'm hearing about it.

As for banning freeware platforms I 1000% completely disagree with you. Freeware and commercial paid for platforms can and have always co-existed. If you are working on a non free platform the onus is on you to provide more value than the freeware

This is what got me thinking :

"The Kenya ICT Board is also working on a certification programme that will regulate the theoretical and practical aspects of writing and executing software codes."

Anyone know what the above is about?

And can ICT, KEBS board also ensure that all FREEWARE platforms are banned from kenyan networks, PLEASE !!! It will kill all local software initiatives.

I'll check more and share me thots a bit later. :-)

Rgds.
