Somehow, I didn't receive Mark's original message here. I think that Leonid did a great job explaining things. I want to add a couple more things in response here:

We have motivation to continue doing so because OVN and DDlog are part of an ongoing research project for which Leonid and Mihai and I are co-PIs. We have internal funding for this project (which includes funding to hire developers) that reaches at least for the next 18 months. DDlog itself is also in use inside VMware for various products. The other factor is that this is primarily new code that has little entanglement with existing code and which is not likely to become more entangled. That means that, should some kind of code rot happen, it's pretty easy to delete the ddlog implementation. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
