[POLL] Upstream/Downstream vs. Inbound/Outbound

[Will S.]

Either one works with me, although I don't think upstream/downstream is that confusing.

Since Netty is so new, you could probably deprecate the naming in just 1-2 releases.  

Thanks!

Hello community,


Some users reported that the upstream/downstream terminology is

confusing and hard to remember and inbound/outbound is much better.


I agree with them that inbound/outbound fits better, but renaming types

and methods involves backward compatibility issues.  It means the

current types and methods whose names contain 'Upstream' or 'Downstream'

will be deprecated and then be removed in the next couple releases.


Because it's you who are impacted by the renaming, I'd like to know if

you find the current terminology confusing and would accept the API

changes when the changes are made.


Thanks for your feed back in advance,

Trustin
