<br>
The gluster code base has some words and terminology (blacklist, <br>
whitelist, master, slave etc.) that can be considered hurtful/offensive <br>
to people in a global open source setting. Some of words can be fixed <br>
trivially but the Geo-replication code seems to be something that needs <br>
extensive rework. More so because we have these words being used in the <br>
CLI itself. Two questions that I had were:<br>
<br>
1. Can I replace master:slave with primary:secondary everywhere in the <br>
code and the CLI? Are there any suggestions for more appropriate <br>
terminology?<br>
<br>
2. Is it okay to target the changes to a major release (release-9) and <br>
*not* provide backward compatibility for the CLI?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Ravi<br>
