Renaming AWOL Proposal
[[TableOfContents()]
Overview
Problem Space
The term AWOL (Absent Without Official Leave) is viewed by many as a bit hostile toward maintainers. This is something we would like to avoid in the Fedora project where possible.
Solution Overview
I propose we rename AWOL to MIA (Missing in Action). This term more accurately describes the situation and increases the friendliness.
Scope
All the wiki pages that reference AWOL would need a change to say MIA instead, as well as the pages themselves will need to be renamed.
Active Ingredients
is the main page that describes the policy. This page is what will need to be renamed, and have a lot of content changed.
Sub Component
Here is a list of pages that currently reference AWOL that should be changed. Found by a full text search.
Discussion Points
Not much to discuss, other than the validity of the term MIA rather than AWOL.
