Apache just released the Conscious Language Checker:

  https://clc.diversity.apache.org/

Which scans repositories looking for potential issues in conscious
language. The findings for our repos are here:

  https://clc.diversity.apache.org/analysis.html?project=daffodil.git

  https://clc.diversity.apache.org/analysis.html?project=daffodil-site.git

All of these are easy to fix and I've opened DAFFODIL-2557 to take care
of them.

One change that I think requires some discussion/consensus is the use of
the "master" branch name. Many projects have switched to an alternative,
and I suggest we do the same. The two most common alternatives I've seen
are "main" and "develop", which I think "main" being more common. Many
Apache projects now use this, this is now the default branch for new
GitHub repos, and I believe git is planning to make the change as well.

So I suggest we switch to "main" as well.

Any thoughts on "main" vs "develop", or any other alternatives?
