Adam B commented on MESOS-1478:
-------------------------------
Upgraded to an Epic and assigned myself for the time being to drive toward
community consensus on the new name(s).
Summarizing some internal brainstorming:
Alternatives to Slave: Worker, Worker node, Compute Node, Node, Follower,
Minion, Serf, Client, Servant, Secondary, Laborer, Peon, Thrall, Operative
Alternatives to Master: Supervisor, Leader, Controller, Coordinator, Server,
Primary
It has also been brought up that the "Slave Node" and the {{mesos-slave}}
Process are different things, and "Mesos Agent" could be a good name for the
process.
> Replace Master/Slave terminology

> TL;DR - Computers sharing work should be a good thing. Using the language of
> human bondage and suffering is inappropriate in this context. It also has the
> potential to alienate users and community members.
