The tradition has been to name the active development branch in GIT has
been named "master". Quite a number of people object to the name due to
its history.

In light of such concerns, perhaps the Xen Project should join with other
similar projects and move to have the active development branch renamed
"main"?

There was a general intention to do that switch a few years ago, but there were some technical pieces missing. Probably time to take another look.
