I wonder if it's also worth saying what we used to do THEN but not so 
much now, which probably falls into two or more categories

a) things we no longer want to do under the banner hacktionlab - (more 
direct support for social movements, temporary media centres, 
movement-focused tech security outreach,  documentation / publications)
b) things that are less active but which we still like the idea of 
(workshops on non-digital technology, workshops on media projects/software)

of course that's just my editorialising in the brackets - other opinions 
are valid!
