Folks,

I looked at this tool and the Ozone's list of offending words.

They fall into

1. Master
2. Slave
3. he/she/his/her
4. Sanity Check

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

Does anyone feel strongly one way or another? that is, we should fix it or
don't fix it?  Many of these words were written in the earlier parts of
Ozone's life and might have been inadvertently written by me. Please let me
know if anyone has a strong opinion and would be glad to work on that. If
no one has a strong opinion, I can suppress the current set of issues and
go forward without fixing and we can fix issues as they come along in the
future.


Thanks
Anu

[This email was sent to all (P)PMCS at the ASF]

Words matter. The words we choose influence the kinds of communities we
build, the tone we set for our participants, and who will feel welcome
in our projects.

With the growing awareness in the software industry that we routinely
use sexist, racist, ableist words in our code and documentation, it’s
important that you have tooling that helps you discover if your project
is part of the problem.

The CLC - Conscious Language Checker - is such a tool, and gives you
insight into what words and phrases appear in your code and docs that
might make your project less welcoming to certain parts of your
potential community. We’ve taken the liberty to add your project’s
repositories to what we’re scanning, and encourage you to have a look at
https://clc.diversity.apache.org/. Then come to the Diversity mailing
list - https://lists.apache.org/list.html?d...@diversity.apache.org  - if
you want to discuss best practices in adjusting your language choices.

It is important to note that the CLC instance we have running is using
default settings for all projects. Thus, a project may disagree with
what the scanner considers problematic. This is all configurable, and
requires you to log in via ASF Oauth. Once logged in, you may edit your
project's settings to your liking. New scans happen every 12 hours.

We ask that people do not add or remove project repositories without
prior notice to d...@diversity.apache.org.

With regards,
Daniel and Rich, on behalf of the Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
committee at the ASF.
