[ovs-discuss] OpenNebula in Open vSwitch

[Jaime Melis]

Hello Ben,

thanks for your response.

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


I completely agree with adding INSTALL.OpenNebula to the sources. I have
just sent a patch to the dev mailing list: "[PATCH] docs: Add
INSTALL.OpenNebula."

If you think it's of enough general interest then perhaps we could add a

Yes, that sounds good, I guess it should point either to INSTALL.OpenNebula
or to http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.8:openvswitch (or both!).

Would it be possible to place a link to those documents in a more static
way? AFAICT if its placed in the "In the News" tab it will be eventually
pushed out.

thanks,
Jaime
