> We should reconsider our use of historical master-slave terminology everywhere - book, site, and javadoc - and replace it with a more modern vocabulary. There was a conversation in the background at HBaseCon about this (I was involved in one on Twitter). Out of some of the suggestions, I like "coordinator" as replacement for "master", and "worker" as one replacement for "slave", with the other the more descriptive "regionserver" or "region server".
