I've been refraining myself from commenting (specially with so many
passionate voices on [1]), but I'm happy that this is happening. While I
personally don't see anything offensive in 'master', I think it's
worthwhile to try to accomodate more people in the community. As always,
it's harder to identify what is bothering a particular group if you are
not part of that group. Kudos to the community (and to you Taylor) for
trying to move this topic forward in a constructive fashion.

I'm not familiar with how formal consensus is built in this community,
but take this as an explicit +1 from me.
