[Openstack] Rackspace abandons Open vSwitch ?

Just for the record, I gave up on Neutron L3 Router, powered by GRE/VXLAN
tunnels. There are too many problems on this architecture.
I'm using Flat/VLAN Provider Networks right now (still with OpenvSwitch
but, no problems), I'm looking for a new solution (with IPv6), I'll take a
look at OpenContrail!

Thanks!
