[Openflow-dev] Upcoming OpenFlow 1.0

[Daniele <d.t...@ic...>]

Dear OpenFlow developers,

thanks to the restless work of  people like Vincenzo Di Somma and Riccardo 
Lemmi, acting in the past as Icube developers and now as external 
collaborators, Icube's OpenFlow has reached a well-defined stage. 

Icube would like to officially release OpenFlow 1.0 making it finally come 
out of CVS. I would like to support this release with as much documentation 
and examples as possible. But I don't want to re-do something already done: 
Vincenzo, Riccardo, do you have anything looking like documentation or 
examples?

Another good thing to have would be "expected future works on OpenFlow". 
Since the development, I expect, will be involving quite a few people I would 
like to sketch the next possible evolution of OpenFlow so that the project 
won't go wild in too many different directions. Any ideas on starting points? 
Any othere un-implemented requirements? "CMF-OF", for example? I expect this 
mailing list to become much more important for the development of OpenFlow.

Vincenzo, Riccardo, what is the situation with the "Expressions" module? Will 
OpenFlow 1.0 still stick to the CMF.1.3 Expressions module? Or is it going to 
own a similar one? Do you have any news about this from Alan? Can this point 
be public on this list, so that we all know what's going on?

Am I forgetting something? Anybody want to contribute further?

Ah, last but not least: OpenFlow official site (http://www.openflow.it) needs 
feedback from visitors and users. Suggestions, comments and anything else 
will be quite welcome.


Daniele =)
