Hi, Henrique is right on his statements. The Open vSwitch kernel module can replace the linux bridge and has support to OpenFlow , but you doesn't necessarily needs to use it OpenFlow on it.
The CPqD/ofsoftswitch13, implements almost all features from the OpenFlow 1.3 (while Open vSwitch is having gradual upgrades to new versions) is simpler (also if you want to prototype new functionalities ) and is destined for experimentation purposes.
