Subject: Re: Inclusive terminology usage in Spark

This was covered and mostly done last year: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32004
In some instances, it's hard to change the terminology as it would break user 
APIs, and the marginal benefit may not be worth it, but, have a look at the 
remaining task under that umbrella.

Hi,


Terms such as Blacklist/Whitelist and master/slave is used at different places 
in Spark Code. Wanted to know if there are any plans to modify this to more 
inclusive terminology, for eg: Denylist/Allowlist and Leader/Follower? If so, 
what is the timeline?

I’ve also created an improvement ticket to track this.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-35952

Thanks and Regards,
Abhishek
