Cassandra Targett commented on SOLR-14702:
------------------------------------------
bq. I don't know how others will feel about dropping the "SolrCloud" term,
someone suggested in the past I think?
I didn't plan on wholesale replacing "SolrCloud" as a term, but this could be a
first step is doing that. My thought was that I would try to make it clear that
"SolrCloud" = "coordinated mode" and what we call SolrCloud really means that.
A conceptual shift, as it were. Later when/if we get around to replacing the
SolrCloud terminology in the code, we can eradicate the term from the docs.
Since I'll be doing this as a separate thing from this issue, I'll file a new
Jira and we can discuss what I'm thinking in more detail there to agree on the
terminology.

> Every time I read _master_ and _slave_, I get pissed.
> I think about the last and only time I remember visiting my maternal great
> grandpa in Alabama at four years old. He was a sharecropper before WWI, where
> he lost his legs, and then he was back to being a sharecropper somehow after
> the war. Crazy, I know. I don't know if the world still called his job
> sharecropping in 1993, but he was basically a slave—in America. He lived in
> the same shack that his father, and his grandfather (born a slave) lived in
> down in Alabama. Believe it or not, my dad's (born in 1926) grandfather was
> actually born a slave, freed shortly after birth by his owner father. I never
> met him, though. He died in the 40s.
> Anyway, I cannot police all terms in the repo and do not wish to. This
> master/slave shit is archaic and misleading on technical grounds. Thankfully,
> there's only a handful of files in code and documentation that still talk
> about masters and slaves. We should replace all of them.
> There are so many ways to reword it. In fact, unless anyone else objects or
> wants to do the grunt work to help my stress levels, I will open the pull
> request myself in effort to make this project and community more inviting to
> people of all backgrounds and histories. We can have leader/follower, or
> primary/secondary, but none of this Master/Slave nonsense. I'm sick of the
> garbage.
