> I'd like to remove our use of master/slave terminology in favor of something that doesn't carry a racially charged meaning.
> As a side effect I'd also like to pick names that carry better meaning of how things work within Accumulo.
> In the case of a single cluster, I'd like to
> * Change the Master role to Coordinator
> * Change the associated master server package to coordinator
> * Change the master configuration file to be named coordinators
> * Change the slaves configuration file to be named tservers
> In the case of the in-progress replication work I'd like to change terminology:
> * use _Primary Cluster_  in place of _Master Cluster_
> * use _Replica Clusters_ in place of _Slave Clusters_
> I intend to do this in all active branches in a way that maintains compatibility of existing configuration files and serialized actions (i.e. fate operations) within their major branch. In the current unreleased major branch I expect upgrading will require user action (e.g. renaming configuration files).
