+<h2>Technical Board</h2>
+
+<p>More high level details are defined in the
+<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1x43ycfW3arJNX-e6NQt3OVzAuNXtD7dppIhrY48FoGs">charter</a>.</p>
+
+<h3 id="scope">Scope</h3>
+<p>The decision making process is primarily based on consensus.
+However in rare cases, the Technical Board can make a decision
+when consensus is not reached on the mailing list.
+<p>The scope of this body is limited to the questions directly related
+to the development in the following repositories:
+<ul>
+	<li>dpdk.git
+	<li>dpdk-stable.git
+	<li>dpdk-next-*.git
+	<li>dpdk-ci.git
+	<li>dpdk-web.git
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id="members">Members</h3>
+<p>The 9 current members of
+<a href="mailto:techboard@dpdk.org">techboard@dpdk.org</a> are:
+<ul>
+	<li>Bruce Richardson
+	<li>Hemant Agrawal
+	<li>Jan Blunck
+	<li>Jerin Jacob
+	<li>Konstantin Ananyev
+	<li>Olivier Matz
+	<li>Stephen Hemminger
+	<li>Thomas Monjalon
+	<li>Yuanhan Liu
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id="renewal">Renewal</h3>
+<p>Technical Board positions are held by individuals, not companies.
+However, employees of a single company should not occupy more than 40% of board seats.
+<p>It can be decided to remove a member if there is an approval of 2/3 of the whole Technical Board.
+It can be decided either to replace the member, or to redefine the size of the board.
+<p>There will be some renewal when it will be felt as needed.
+
+<h3 id="meetings">Meetings</h3>
+<p>A short meeting happens on IRC (freenode #dpdk-board) every two weeks.
+<p>The quorum required for a meeting to proceed is a 70% majority of the Technical Board.
+<p>The Chair is a rotating role among members.
+<p>Any contributor can ask to add a topic in the agenda by sending an email
+to <a href="mailto:techboard@dpdk.org">techboard@dpdk.org</a>.
+The board members will add any topic of interest in the agenda.
+<p>Minutes are sent to <a href="/ml/archives/dev/">dev@dpdk.org</a> so anyone can comment.
+However, the technical discussions should happen in the original thread.
+
+<h3 id="roles">Roles</h3>
+<ul>
+	<li>The new project repositories must be approved by the Technical Board,
+	while applying the non-technical criteria defined by the <a href="/404">Governing Board</a>.
+	<li>If a technical discussion lacks of explanation, details or evidence,
+	it will be asked on the mailing list.
+	<li>If a patch does not receive any or enough comment, the board will help
+	to make it progressing on the mailing list.
+	<li>If there is no consensus in a discussion, a decision can be taken
+	by the Technical Board and explained on the mailing list.
+</ul>
+<p>For a vote to be passed, a majority (> 50%) of the total Technical Board is required
+(not just a majority of those in attendance at the meeting).
+In the event of a deadlock the Technical Board Chair shall have the casting vote.
