Do you mean replacing "master"? Although I agree with avoiding the word "slave", I agree with Matz, and I do not see any point in deprecating the word master. Whereas the word master implies master-slave relation only in the context of slavery, the word slave means nothing else (in present English). They are different. The word master is used in wide context, such as the boss in an employment relation. And once you start claiming against the use of the word "master", what are you going to do with "master's degree", "Master Card", "masterpiece", etc.?

Misc #17828: Deprecate use of master and slave
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17828#change-91707

* Author: yyoshida.at.work@gmail.com (Yasuhiro Yoshida)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
In light of organizations like Basecamp and GitHub refraining from using words like "master" and "slave," it may be a good time for Ruby Core team to follow the practices. I also feel that this issue has been discussed before, and there may already be plans in place as it's a nice thing to do and there is a lot to cover that may require concerted efforts by the whole team.

It would be nice if I could learn them and maybe contribute to the task.

For now, I am thinking maybe I can start working on most of the documentations, comments, and even tests that have the terminology but wouldn't affect the code that is run in production.
