Open Stack

Hi Matt,

Jaume did an awesome work at proposing and implementing a framework for
announcing public IP with a BGP speaker [1].
Unfortunately, the spec hasn't been merged in kilo. Hope it will be
resubmitted in L.
Your proposal seems to be a mix of Jaume proposal and HA router design?

We also play with a BGP speaker (BagPipe[3], derived from ExaBGP, written
in python) for IPVPN attachment [2].
