Hi Folks, I've started working on cleaning up the Spark code to remove references to slave since the word has a lot of negative connotations and we can generally replace it with more accurate/descriptive words in our code base. The PR is at https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/28864 (I'm a little uncertain on the place of where I chose the name "AgentLost" as the replacement, suggestions welcome).
At some point I think we should explore deprecating master as well, but that is used very broadley inside of our code and in our APIs, so while it is visible to more people changing it would be more work. I think having consensus around removing slave though is a good first step.
