I never hear the word ``prisoners'' used among experienced Go players in the US, who talk about captures and capture dishes. It has a sort of disagreeable connotation, if you think how prisoners of war are usually treated.
I'm fairly certain that the English language literature frequently speaks of prisoners, but I can't say it matter much to me which term is used in GTP.
I don't think any existing gtp applications actually use the ''prisoners'' command, having just grepped gnugoclient-2.0 and regression/ .
I have never used it so far, at least.
