Dear all,

Thanks to everyone who contributed their ideas in the sub-term definitions 
list 
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-8myIWOZZktR0HNtbFIiNA0RfDCvkfKKuNI0C3wcvbo/edit#heading=h.tznacb7eadfy>.
 
We've got a number of ideas and identified the missing terms where we need 
decisions. Most notable ones which require discussion:

   - Jenkins as node
   - Jenkins “main node” label - Aligned with “Jenkins as node”
   - Jenkins master pod - for K8s components
   - “Master branch” in documentation, not the repository layout
   
I suggest we continue the discussion and finalize the term decisions at the 
next governance meeting on May 05. I encourage all contributors to review 
the doc, vote for terms and let us know if you see any term missing. 
Hopefully we could build a consensus before th governance meeting happens.

Thanks for your time,
Oleg Nenashev
