I think it is very important for the first version of governance that we have ARM/SOC vendor/future contributors to be part of TSC. If based on historical contribution - they will be at a disadvantage. We need to have the DPDK organization support an API which supports a broader set of chips.

There were two outcomes. One was a proposal to move governance under Linux Foundation. The other was to have a technical steering committee. It was agreed the TSC would be based on the contributors to the project, although we didn't come to a conclusion on a voting model. I would propose that TSC should be elected at regular user summit from nominees; in a manner similar to LF Technical Advisory Board.
