[Pulp-dev] Seeking Nomenclature

So syncing from one Pulp server to another Pulp server is usually called
'natural syncing'. See [0][1].

AFAIK, there is no official concept of master/nodes/etc in Pulp anymore
since in the case of natural syncing, there’s nothing special about either
instance of Pulp. We have used the terms ‘parent’ and ‘child’ though (as in
the blog post I linked to).
