We're in mostly the same boat; using nova-network with VLAN segmentation and 
looking at a Neutron migration (though ours may take a more drastic path and 
take us to Neutron+Calico). One question I have for you: the largest issue and 
conceptual leap we had when initially prototyping Neutron+linuxbridge was that 
our current model only has controllers and work nodes, with no provisions for 
dedicated network nodes to route in/out of the cluster. All our work nodes can 
route by themselves, which would have steered us towards a DVR model, but that 
seems to have its own issues as well as mandating OVS.

Since your branch indicates you're using linuxbridge on Icehouse, are you 
provisioning network nodes as part of your migration, or are you avoiding 
needing to provision network nodes in a different fashion?

Definitely, I can work on that. I need to get the migration done first, but 
once I do I plan to open source our plays and whatever else to help people 
perform the migration themselves. At that point I can work on adding some stuff 
to the networking guide as well. Probably will be a few months from now, though.
