My current plan is to send the RFC changes along with the prototyping code for review. I am currently making a small change to the original monitor message to indicate whether it will accept the new Update Notification format. With the proposal of <monitor-cond-request>, I think it can be implied with the new message, and much cleaner.
The details of the new Update Notification is more involved that I would like to prototype before proposing. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
