Count me in on this discussion as well. May make sense to have a lightning talk at the summit, or an unconference slot.

Could you clarify why distributed vs centrally located routing implementation need to be distinguished? Another question is that are you proposing distributed routing implementation for tenant routers or for the router connecting the virtual cloud to the external network? The reason that I'm asking this question is because our company would also like to propose a router implementation that would eliminate a single point uplink failures. We have submitted a couple blueprints on that topic (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/provider-router-support, https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/bgp-dynamic-routing) and would appreciate an opportunity to collaborate on making it a reality.
