> For the board itself, there are several options including:
> 1.a Governing Board. This is frequently used in other LF projects.
> 1.b Board of Directors. This is also frequently used in other LF projects.
> 1.c DPDK Board. This is a bit more neutral and doesn't imply that the board governs the technical aspects of the project.
> 1.d DPDK Marketing & CI Board. This is more specific, but is a bit misleading as the board only manages the budget for CI, not all aspects of CI.

I do not like 1.a, 1.b and 1.c because it is not descriptive enough.
We must avoid giving the impression that the technical part of the project
is influenced by those paying a membership.

Why not simply one these new proposals?
1.e Budget Board
1.f Financial Board

> For the technical board, the options include:
> 2.a Technical Board. This is the current name.
> 2.b Technical Steering Committee. This is the name typically used on other LF projects.

OK for both
