Not at all true. Neutron, the open source implementation, uses a variety of open components, OVS being one of them. If you know of any open component that supports NSH readily available today, I'd be happy to hear about it. > And if so does that apply to stadium projects > We have actually been trying to better define what stadium means as it may lead to misconceptions.
