After upgrading Jenkins I noticed that the toplevel menu item 'New Job' has 
been renamed to 'New Item'. All other links, messages, etc. still call the 
created item „job“. Are there plans to rename all of these messages? What is 
the rationale behind this? I think the old name „Create Job“ was very clear to 
new users, but the new name „Create Item“ is very unclear. Maybe this is due to 
the fact that I’m not a native speaker but I think the term item is too generic 
for me. Even though we are technically not creating jobs anymore I think it 
would make things more user friendly if we stick to „job“. 

What do you think?

PS: the german translation makes it even worse: since there is no meaningful 
translation of „Item“ the english word is mixed with the german action name
