<br />
First time topic was explored on mailing list.<br />
https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/inclusive_language_summary/75821819<br />
<br />
This is an attempt to collate Inclusive Language for OpenEmbedded and the Yocto Project in regards to code.<br />
<br />
= Game play=<br />
If a BB variable has a local assignment, the rename should be transitive.<br />
Example:<br />
BB_HASHBASE_WHITELIST is changed to BB_HASHBASE_ALLOWLIST, then self.basewhitelist would become self.baseallowlist<br />
<br />
Add an offending name in one of the three tables below. If you have a suggested replacement, please add. If the translation is approved, that will be noted in the same row. Approval process: TBD<br />
<br />
=Recommendations=<br />
Recommended replacements for 'blacklist/whitelist' are:<br />
{| class="wikitable" border="2"<br />
!blacklist<br />
!whitelist<br />
|-<br />
|denylist<br />
|allowlist<br />
|-<br />
|blocklist<br />
|passlist<br />
|-<br />
|excludes or excludelist<br />
|includes or includelist<br />
|-<br />
|}<br />
<br />
=Exceptions=<br />
Exceptions for introducing new usage is limited upstream sources outside the control of The Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded.<br />
