"dumb" slave?

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      User of jenkins for 2 years now. Our company uses it very extensively and it servers our purposes very well.
      However, I can't help but cringe every time someone refers to a node as a slave. I understand the computer science nature of these terms but I deeply desire to see this kind of language removed from our field of work.

      Thank you for all your hard work to make this great product, how about we make sure it's more acceptable to a wider audience!
