At the community call we held on governance in December, we agreed that a few of us would work with the Linux Foundation on a proposal for a light-weight governance of DPDK. This would include things like management of DPDK events, registering trademarks, and any required legal support etc.

Stephen, Thomas, Dave, Vincent and I met with the Linux Foundation to discuss this and came up with a draft budget proposal. We'd like to have a community call to discuss this and decide how we should proceed.

The current budget estimate is ~$227k. LF guidance is that for this size of budget they'd propose a flat membership fee (i.e. no tiered membership) of ~$25k per member company, with a target of getting 10 or more companies to contribute.

At the call we can discuss:
- A breakdown of the proposed budget. LF are very flexible on this, so we can add or remove whatever we want for DPDK.
- Proposed membership fee.
- Matthew also highlight some recent changes to community representation at the Linux Foundation. We should discuss any concerns associated with this.
- Next steps.
