  * TODO: move out more stuff to {@link DumbSlave}.
+ * 
+ * On Febrary, 2016 a general renaming was done internally: the "slave" term was replaced by
+ * "Agent". This change was applied in: UI labels/HTML pages, javadocs and log messages.
+ * Java classes, fields, methods, etc were not renamed to avoid compatibility issues.
+ * See <a href="https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27268">JENKINS-27268</a>.
