----------------------------------------------

Why? This is a make-work with no real benefits to anyone. Could you please provide some factual foundation for such a change (besides of the virtue signalling)? Thank you!

> Hi folks,
> I am aware that the Bigtop community considers the use of the "slave" terminology in our docker images etc.. as a technical term, and not something offensive to others, but we should try to replace it with a more inclusive word like "worker" or "replica" in my opinion.
> This will cause some impact to users, since all our Docker images will need to be renamed, but it seems worth doing.
> Let me know your thoughts :)
