hi,

here's a blueprint to make OVS agent use Ryu to talk with OVS.

    https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/ovs-ofctl-to-python
    https://review.openstack.org/#/c/138980/  (kilo spec)

given that ML2/OVS is one of the most popular plugins and the proposal
has a few possible controversial points, i want to ask wider opinions.

- it introduces a new requirement for OVS agent. (Ryu)
- it makes OVS agent require newer OVS version than it currently does.
- what to do for xenapi support is still under investigation/research.
- possible security impact.

please comment on gerrit if you have any opinions.  thank you.
