This would be very nice. There are some challenges to overcome. The testing infrastructure between the Python and C implementations is shared. Out of tree it becomes more a bit more difficult to make sure that they stay in sync both feature and compatibility-wise. My gut feeling is that it would still be worth the work, though. There's no good reason for releases of the Python library to be tied OVS releases. Terry
