Everyone,

It's exciting to see that much energy directed at Django! At the same time, 
it's sad to see it tragically misused.

If you want to help, there are currently 124 pull requests on GitHub, 133 
patches on Trac and 38 new tickets, all needing a review.

Any of these would be a better use of your time than this wording issue on 
which the core team has already made a final decision.

Thank you,

Re: Terms for database replication

[Alex Gaynor]

You're entitled to your own opinions, but you aren't entitled to your own
facts. The terms primary/replica are extremely well established, perhaps
even moreso than master/slave: https://imgur.com/a/pCp3d, the suggestion
that this is a gross violation of computer science nomenclature is pure
fiction. Further, the terms master/slave do not accurately describe the
setup the documentation is referring to, with replication schemes like
Wal-E (where a "slave" never even communicates with a "master") or
PostgreSQL's chained replication (where a "slave" can replicate to another
"slave"), the desire to cling to these misleading terms is simply
perplexing.

The  perception from the outside is that you didn't put the Django project best

I think we all get sent to the naughty step if we continue to discuss
this, so I will just say that "master" is being used as an adjective
in this context, it is the master database, or the master connection,
or indeed master branch. "Master" as in slavery is when it is used as
a noun. A few dictionary definition of the adjective "master":

"of or pertaining to a master from which copies are made: master film;
master matrix; master record;master tape."
"Being an original from which copies are made."
"an original from which copies can be made; especially :  a master
recording (as a magnetic tape)"

No other word is suitable because this word universally encapsulates
this concept, not just in IT, but in all aspects of all trades that
make copies of things.

And in databases, it means the connection on which you can "master"

Hi everybody.

The Django core developers have made our decision on the terminology we're
going to use; I'd ask that you stop using django-developers to debate this
further.

Re: Terms for database replication

[Flavio Curella]

I just want to clarify a few misunderstanding that I keep seeing popping up.

1. If you read the original 
ticket, https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/22667 you will notice that my 
original concern wasn't the word 'master', nor the word 'slave', but the 
usage of both terms together. What basically I wanted to do was renaming 
that specific database configuration known as master/slave to something 
else. Turns out, primary/replica was already there.
2. Contrary to popular belief, the words 'master' and 'slave' have not been 
banned from the documentation.
3. I sure have no intention or hope to change the English language used by 
billions of people. That's kind of a big task to accomplish.
4. I neither have any intention of telling people what they should use. By 
all means, use whatever you feel like it's best. The intention here was to 
change just what Django uses in its docs.

Re: Terms for database replication

I don't want to devolve completely into an etymological circlejerk here,
but my sense is that "master" in the VCS sense is like "master key," rather
than describing the interpersonal relationship of involuntary servitude.

 If the project has become so PC sensitive that the word "slave" is no
 longer permitted to be uttered, then "replica" is an alternate term,
 but "primary" is not.

 Have you ever set up "primary-primary replication"? No, neither have
 I. Master-master replication is common, please do not take it upon
 yourselves to re-program our vocabulary.

 I have a primary master, I do not have a primary primary!

Re: Terms for database replication

FWIW, I think the main objection is to the word "slave", not to "master". 
Otherwise we'll be renaming the git branches soon...

So "master" / "replica" would work.

Re: Terms for database replication

[Justin Holmes]

I think I agree that "primary" is a bad choice.  Can you suggest something
other than master?  Something that will address the concerns posed in the
past two threads?

I saw that someone suggested "leader" and "follower" - I haven't thought
through whether I find this more palatable.
