Hi All,

We are planning to add proper (not just compatibility mode) Open
vSwitch support to the Xen Live CD.

Is anybody maintaining patches against open source Xen (not XCP) for
this type of Open vSwitch support?

I could try to go through and make the changes to the Xen networking
scripts replacing calls to brctl with ovs-* commands, etc.

Are the XCP networking scripts different enough that they couldn't be
re-used for this purpose?

Is there general interest among the open source Xen community to have
this type of support?

Thanks,
Todd
