I remember talking to CloudBees reps back around 2013 when we were going to purchase Jenkins Enterprise licenses and they made a conscious effort to refer to build slaves as build agents or build nodes. I applauded them at the time for that even though there is still a lot of referencing of "slave" in documentation and blogs. I don't have a problem with "master" but I do have a problem with "slave" and I'd like to eradicate it.

Why do you want to eradicate it?
