The Welsh assembly for funding options if it's going to be used in schools<br>
in Wales rather than something sane. Otherwise they are probably just<br>
going to have to pay for translation like anyone else.<br>

(sorry but IMHO the BBC Micro Bit is a joke, its a corporate welfare<br>
project to produce something overpriced and under-useful that will have no<br>
value outside school and is different to what every one else on the<br>
planet is adopting). It's the perfect example of the BBC being made by<br>
government to meddle in and compete with the commercial sector for no<br>
reason, as well as being basically built on a pile of proprietary<br>
toolchains.<br>
