One more thing: Rather than implementing and maintaining an entire new
plugin, consider whether it might make sense to integrate as an ml2
MechanismDriver instead. The ml2 plugin's MechanismDrivers can
interface with network devices or controllers, and can work in
conjunction with the existing L2 agents if needed. See
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Neutron/ML2 for more info.
