This is a LegalHack@OKCon 2013 challenge
Swiss Open Government Licence
There is not yet an “Open Government Data Swiss Licence” like the one found in UK, see Open Government License (gov.uk). A license like this would help public and private organizations more quickly and widely publish their content. Good information resources surrounding the license would inform and educate content authors on its protections and opportunities for content reuse.
Hackathon goals
- Start or obtain French & German translations of Open Data Commons 1.0.
- Discuss adaptations needed to Swiss laws.
- Publish the results on the Web.
