[Openstack] Network Service for L2/L3 Network Infrastructure blueprint

Soren will be running the network service infrastructure from the
Rackspace/Openstack side.

I want to temper this discussion by reminding everyone that Cactus will
be a testing/stabilization release.  Feature freeze will come much
quicker and we want anything major changes to hit very early.

I think it is possible to come up with a plan that has the first phase
of this blueprint hitting in Cactus, but we don't want to do anything
that will jeopardize the stability of the network subsystem for Cactus.
