-The [[event:home|first four]] Open Data Camps in Switzerland were a big success. Hundreds of people have attended the events in Zürich, Lausanne, Geneva, Bern, dozens of [[http://make.opendata.ch/doku.php?do=search&id=%40project|pioneer projects]] were initiated and implemented. The fifth make.opendata.ch camp - aiming at the topic of Health - promises to be the biggest and most provocative yet: save the date (and data) on 28-29 September 2012.
+Data is the so-called oil of the 21st century - with the difference being that every minute there is more data produced at an enormous and growing rate. We are excited to create and take part in these hackdays to explore the mountains of data treasures around, exchange ideas and start-up new applications around new possibilities.
-We are convinced that the thematic focus will strengthen the community of designers, developers, activists and journalists and foster innovation around making health more efficient and more transparent through open data apps.
+Law is not an exception to this rule, and as users of the Internet we are inundated with legal texts that we often fail to understand completely, yet they govern what we can or cannot do with services, and it is what obliges those service providers to protect our privacy and safety online.
+At past [[event:home|Swiss Open Data Camps]] we have already had a few ideas around the theme of **open legal**, among them the [[project:semantic_legal]] and we have constantly explored and debated the boundaries of what we can legally do with the data, understand the conditions of use fully. At the next make.opendata.ch hackdays in September 2013, we will focus on the theme of online law, legal data, and data licensing in a wide sense.
