Hi

I'm not precious either way. And would defo stand aside from having
drawn out discussions about the name.

That said, I think 'hack' has, for a long time, had a 'popular'
understanding of cracking when used in computer terms. However, people
within the 'computer scene' still have a broader understanding of the
DIY spirit of enquiry (e.g. hack-spaces are as likely to be formed of
electronics or safe cracking bods as they are coding bods). I guess it
might come down to who HacktionLab is trying to appeal to.

Cheers
