The problem is that **not a single** black person has claimed to have

Has anyone proposing the change brought forward a black person who
finds the term personally offensive?

Within the context that master _and_ slave is used, i do.


These two variables could be named anything, you and zeurkous whining about it is getting
incredibly annoying; way more so than any argument put forth in how this would negatively
affect zsh thus far.

renaming the master branch is user affecting so i would prefer to keep it, changing listmaster@
faqmaster@ is user affecting and would require more effort on our part so i would keep them.

if i would to push the change i doubt either of you two would notice.
