Eliminate non-inclusive language #546

Description

Hello, we have a project to eliminate non-inclusive language from the linux-system-roles.

Running a utility woke (now it's supported in tox. please install the latest tox-lsr and run tox -e woke), two non-inclusive words are reported - dummy, whitelist, blacklist, master, and slave.

Can we replace them with more appropriate words? We are worried some of the words are coming from the network subsystems themselves that the network role depends upon. I'd think "eliminating non-inclusive language" is a common project among us including the subsystems. How are they solving the issue? If the network subsystems are already working on them, we could follow their effort.

Can we ask you to share the network team's policy on this matter with us? Thanks!
