Seconded.
Speaking with various people about the ways they can join Debian, I've
had several time the feeling that our current (incoherent) naming is
quite confusing. It is nobody's fault, it has just grown this way due to
how our membership mechanisms evolved, but it's definitely time to make
the terminology more uniform.
