We don't really have a general-purpose "blog" section on
openvswitch.org.  But I'd personally welcome contributions of content.
The most obvious place to put OpenNebula information in Open vSwitch
would be to add a file to the top level of the Open vSwitch distribution
that explains how to integrate the two.  We already have instructions
for a number of OSes and other systems:

    INSTALL.Debian
    INSTALL.Fedora
    INSTALL.KVM
    INSTALL.Libvirt
    INSTALL.RHEL
    INSTALL.XenServer

and I could see an INSTALL.OpenNebula fitting in nicely.

If you think it's of enough general interest then perhaps we could add a
pointer to the new documentation to the "In the News" tab or to the
"Updates" column that is on most pages on the site.

What do you think?
