of the term[1] , not the media's[2]
"Last November we decided to do a trial 48-hour hackathon in
preparation for a real hackathon we signed up for. The idea was to
build something fun and simple yet useful, that could potentially
become another product in our health apps portfolio. We took a look at
what data is publicly accessible through Slovenia’s government
agencies in the health sector, and stumbled upon the database of
waiting times for medical procedures at health institutions
(hospitals, clinics) throughout the country."
