Comment on would it be simpler for people if we said "proxy" instead of "instance"?
originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 1 year agono offense, but 'proxy' and 'hub' are also technophobe-ambiguous. servers, however... is somewhat mainstream. all my ignorant staff understand the server concept.

I agree with you on proxy.
For hub I am not sure, that sounds a bit more mainstream to me, with the caveat that English is not my mother tongue. That gives a nice image that an instance is basically an access hub to a whole universe of data.
