Language is years of words being assigned meaning. As youdescribed it, master/slave terminology has the same exact meaning of a relationship between areal master and slave. That connection is the problematic bit, because in some countries slaverywasn't all that long ago, and in some places it's never left or it changed forms.If we want to be an inclusive project, it would be beneficial to use language that do esn't scratch at scarswhen we have other metaphors we can use.Regards,Chris_______________________________________________

There is a master process. It tells a slave what to do. The slave process does it, no questions asked. This is what machines do. It is accurate. It does not reflect on history, it is not a reference to it. --Pat _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list gnome org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
