No > In my opinion, the cover letter is a good place to explain a design. Agree. Currently, In the patch series already have the design[1] in the cover letter and documentation[2] [1] http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2020-June/171070.html [2] http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/71953/ Thomas, I did not understand the expectation of "I propose drafting the design in a Technical Board meeting". You mean, Techboard will define/draft the design? or Are you expecting anything from the patch submitter otherthan participating in the discussion. The description is not clear, Hence I am asking. > >
