From what I understood, it's github which is asking for the change, not enforcing it.

For the record, I am supposed to come back to infra with a link to a mail thread -aka this one- to act our decision. So +1s needed.

Since there is a bit of a workload currently with the engine release to push out, I update my proposal: let just switch only velocity-site for now towards main, we'll update the others later on.

Hi folks.

I recently opened a routine ticket to infra to have the default github branch of apache/velocity-site moved from trunk to master (a change which is already effective in our other projects) : https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-21355

But I was asked in return to discuss this change within our community, as it appears that since October, github is using "main" as the default branch for new repositories, and promoting the change from "master" to "main" for existing ones.

The reason behind this is "part of the company's effort to remove unnecessary references to slavery and replace them with more inclusive terms."

I have no problem on my side with this change, but it should be more consistent to do it in all our repositories.

So, any objection to switch the default branch from "master" to "main" on all our repositories?

I don't mind to switch. I wonder whether there is a general foundation stance on this or every TLP decides for itself.
