The Steering Council just published the community update for February:

Thank you for posting this.

    The Steering Council discussed renaming the master branch to main
    and the consensus was that we should do that.

I did not that this was an issue. This will break 4 of my .bat files (update repository and workspaces, build python.exes, run sphinx on docs, run coverage.) and, I presume, many other workflow scripts and bots. What is the upside? ('next (version)' might be more accurately descriptive, but 'main' works as the 'main branch we are working on'.) Does 'master' confuse people?
