Hi Gal:

I don't think it's a completely fair characterize this as anything
other than an attempt to accurately reflect what the Neutron team can
stand behind. Most of these other open source projects (like
Dragonflow, networking-odl, even networking-ovn) can quite easily
apply for Big Tent admission, and would make the grade pretty easily.
This was not done to hurt anyones feelings or anything, and I know
Russell spent a lot of time on this. We knew this conversation would
be difficult, so I applaud him for sticking his neck out here and
moving things forward.

Thanks!
Kyle
