Yes, we do not allow eventlet in Octavia. It leads to a number of
conflicts and problems with the overall code base, including the use
of taskflow.
Is there a reason we need to use the os-ken BGP code as opposed to the
exabgp option that was being used before?
I remember we looked at those two options back when the other team was
developing the l3 option, but I don't remember all of the details of
why exabgp was selected.
