It isn't clear yet how pull requests fit in with the Open vSwitch
workflow.  If people start sending them, then we'll start reviewing
them, as an experiment.  If they work well, we'll encourage people who
like them to use them.  Otherwise, we'll ask people to just use the
mailing lists.

I see that we have one pull request already:
        https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/pull/1
I asked Guru to take a look at it.
