Juno Whatever gets it done faster- let me get the three repos aligned. I need to get the ovs/ovn work done so networking-ovn can call it, and the networking-sfc can call networking-ovn.
Hopefully I will have it done tomorrow or over the weekend - let's touch base Monday or Sunday night.

Since then, based on feedback from everyone I have been moving the API to the networking-sfc model and then supporting that API in networking-ovn and ovs/ovn. I have created a new driver in networking-sfc for ovn. I am in the process of moving networking-ovn and ovs to support the sfc model. Basically I am intending to pass a deep copy of the port-chain (sample attached, sfc_dict.py) from the ovn driver in networking-sfc to networking-ovn. This , as Ryan pointed out will minimize the dependancies between networking-sfc and networking-ovn. I have created additional schema for ovs/ovn (attached) that will provide the linkage between networking-ovn and ovs/ovn. I have the schema in ovs/ovn and I am in the process of updating my code to support it. Not sure where you guys want to jump in – but I can help in any way you need.
