Hi all,

I showed up late to the party, so I'll accept a snub gracefully, but I was 
intrigued by the problem of replacing the term "master" and have one further 
term I would like to put in the poll if at all possible.

Dispatcher.

This would most correctly apply to the function of taking jobs off the queue 
and handing them to nodes. What we today know as master would therefore consist 
of dispatcher and zero-or-one agents.

What I think distinguishes this suggestion is that it connotes a service 
provided to agents in collaboration rather than a hierarchical power 
relationship.
