> China Mobile would like to support moving the DPDK project to the Linux Foundation.

OK, there can be some advantages to join the Linux Foundation.

> DPDK is a key technology / element in the NFV. As an end user, we can foresee the importance of DPDK in the future. If the DPDK project could be governed by Linux Foundation, it will promote more companies to join in and contribute to DPDK project.

Same question as for ZTE,
Why joining the Linux Foundation would help you to contribute?
Is there an issue related to your patents?
How to help you, specifically?
