Hi,

I remember we had a discussion on the matter.
And decide to rename "Master" to "source" and "Slave" to "sink".

My questions are:

   1. I see in the code "client", for example "clientOnly" mode.
   When do we use "client" and when do we use "sink"?
   Are they the same or represent different things?
   2. Did we define the border?
   When do we use the official IEEE "master" and "slave", and when do we
   use the new "source" and "sink"?
   I see, for example, the management IDs remain with  IEEE terminologie.
   3. What about "grandmaster", do we call it grandsource?

I think we should set clear rules, so we can minimize the confusion in the
project.
Something simple like 4-5 rules perhaps.
