The Open vSwitch team will host our third annual conference focused on Open 
vSwitch and OVN on November 7 and 8, 2016, to be held at the San Jose 
Doubletree.

Topics that may be considered include:

* The future of Open vSwitch (e.g., P4 and eBPF).

* NAT, DPI, and stateful processing with Open vSwitch. 

* Deploying and using OVN.

* Testing and scaling OVN.

* NIC acceleration of Open vSwitch.

* Using Open vSwitch to realize NFV and service chaining.

* Porting Open vSwitch to new operating systems, hypervisors,
  or container systems.

* Integrating Open vSwitch into larger systems.

* Troubleshooting and debugging Open vSwitch installations.

* Open vSwitch development and testing practices.

* Performance measurements or approaches to improving
  performance.

* End-user or service provider experiences with Open vSwitch.

* Hardware ports of Open vSwitch (existing, in progress, or
  speculative).

* The relationship between OpenFlow and Open vSwitch.

* Using, developing, or administering OpenFlow controllers in
  conjunction with Open vSwitch.

* Comparisons to other implementations of features found in
  Open vSwitch (e.g. other OpenFlow implementations, other
  software switches, etc.).

* Increasing the size and diversity of the Open vSwitch user
  and developer base.

* Tutorials and walkthroughs of use cases.

* Demos.

* Other topics likely to be of interest to attendees.

We expect most talks to last 20 minutes, with added time for questions.  We 
will do a separate call for shorter lightning talks.

Talks will be recorded and made available online.
