Subject: [ovs-discuss] OVS 2.4 Release Plans

We wanted to provide a quick update on the plan for the next couple releases.  
OVS 2.4 is shaping up to be a big release with a number of great new features 
people are anxious to use. Some of the highlights include:

        - Native Linux kernel STT support
        - Geneve tunneling
        - DPDK vhost and tunneling
        - OpenFlow 1.4 bundles (flow transactions)
        - Bash command completion
        - RSTP
        - Multicast snooping
        - Support for Linux kernels up to 4.0.x

The plan is to branch early next week and have an official release ready 
roughly six weeks after that.

We originally had planned to release OVS 2.4 when the new connection tracking 
features were merged into the upstream kernel. Unfortunately, this has taken 
longer than we anticipated.  We feel we are making progress on that front, and 
once support is added, we will follow it up quickly with another release, which 
will likely be the next LTS.  

Finally, on the subject of LTS, we plan to release OVS 2.3.2 next week, which 
contains a number of bug fixes.

Happy switching!

--Justin
