	Thanks for the super quick answer, it was very helpful.
	I still have a few issue to make it work fully, but I already
made some good progress.

	I've got a little patch for 0.90.4 :
		o The VLAN issue
		o compilation with 2.6.30
		o enable actions other than OFPAT_OUTPUT and OFPAT_VENDOR

	Good luck...

	Jean
