Hi, The Functional Spec is now available here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Midokura+Networking+Plugin
The New Feature ticket is here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-996 The main outstanding questions are: Where should the feature be developed? Should it be on a branch off the ASF repo, and if so, are committer privileges required? Testing How does testing work for plugins which interface with tech which is not freely available? Suggested approach: Plugin creator handles plugin testing, and the plugin is setup as "nonoss" in the pom.xml (therefore not compiled by default) Comments and questions appreciated. Thanks, Dave.
