That's correct. This uses a 2-clause BSD license, but the Intellectual Property Policy section in the Project Charter (http://dpdk.org/about/charter#ip) specifies 3-clause BSD. If you really need to use a new license, then you'll need to make a request to the Governing Board as specified in clause 6.c in the charter.
