Hi everyone, To follow up on the Governance Meeting ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/11Nr8QpqYgBiZjORplL_3Zkwys2qK1vEvK-NYyYa4rzg/edit#heading=h.10x94wjx4rlj). We took the input from the community poll and discussed the options. We voted to change from the term "master' to the term "controller" in referring to the "Jenkins Application". We will be doing some additional work to understand the internationalization aspects as people start to make PR's to change terms in non-english languages. I will be creating a page that will contain recommendations for each language for various terms as the various language discussions occur during PR's.
Thanks for all those who participated in the poll and the discussion.
