The word "Lycan" is derived from the word "lycanthrope," meaning someone who suffers from lycanthropy; "the professed ability or power of a human being to transform into a wolf, or to gain wolf-like characteristics." While referencing pop culture may signal that even computer security geeks have a sense of humor, I'd prefer that future repository names more clearly indicate their purpose. The word "proxy" has a technical meaning; the proposed repo should as well. Because the code translates from OpenC2 to native Cisco IOS, I'd suggest something like: openc2-iosacl-translator openc2-iosacl-adapter openc2-iosacl-shim My personal preference is for "adapter", but any technically descriptive term would be fine.
