Hi MPI-Forum,

This is request to move away from the master-slave terminology currently
used in the following locations in the 2019 draft specification :
- section 6.4.1 : page 256, line 46
- example 6.5.3 page 272 and page 273
These would be better described by supervisor/executor or manager/worker or
anything the members of "Groups, Contexts, Communicators, Caching" working
group see fit.

Thank You,
Sajid Ali | PhD Candidate
