pybrctl repo is at: https://github.com/udragon/pybrctl
It is in pypi.
Looks like a wrapper around the shell brctl commands. I don't think it
would buy us anything more than what moving neutron's current
implementation of doing brctl commands to neutron-lib would do. In
fact, it might end up costing more. That's just my very uninformed
opinion though.
Thanks,
Brandon
