I’ll second Billie’s proposal as it’s a good idea and something we should pursue. Being as inclusive, open, and inviting as possible is a good thing! Jeremy, thanks for a good strawman for a reasonable way to proceed with our next steps. -Chris Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 18, 2020,

Perhaps the following approach might make sense: (1) Identify the changes that would need to be made. (2) Understand the impact of those changes. (3) Determine the right time in the roadmap to make the changes. Do we have plans to revisit some of these components for other reasons so making a

I think this is an important thing to do from the standpoint of being welcoming (this is in the current code of conduct btw). I’ve repeated this elsewhere but I was on a team 7 years ago where someone asked us to stop using terminology including master and slave because it made them uncomfortab

Nathan, I'm sorry, but changing code semantics will not fix the human condition that's responsible for racism. I wish it would, we need that solution. Is this a step in the right direction, I doubt it. You're creating more angst that you're solving. On 6/18/20, 8:04 AM, "Nathaniel Freema

+1 to the ranked choice idea. I also think it makes sense to give GitHub and/or ASF a little time to select a default/main branch name. It would be nice to keep with the standard for the ecosystem since it appears GitHub is switching away from master as a default branch name too. There does app
