Hideyuki, Thanks for bringing this topic up! I was planning to initiate a conversation on this later today - since the Beryllium release was officially approved today. First of all - I think we should dedicate a TWS session for this topic regarding the following discussion and feedback:
1. OpenFlow plugin project voted to do the following: OF Plugin recommends dependent ODL projects to all move to Li plugin design in the Be SR 1 timeframe ( https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/openflowplugin-dev/2016-February/004607.html ) 2. What do projects see as issues & impediments to move to the Lithium design in the SRs (target SR 1) and how the OpenFlow plugin project can address them? Example of the issues - your request regarding the stats RPCs. 3. Develop a timeframe for completing this migration based on the issues/impediments. I would like to note that the key requirement from OpenFlow plugin perspective is that the Boron development should not be done on two different designs. The timeframe should be based on this requirement. Hence OFP thinks it will be important to do this change in the SR1 (or SR2 if cannot be managed). This way OFP developers can concentrate on the Lithium design during the Boron release timeframe (other than occasional high priority bug fixes on Helium design in the subsequent SRs). However, we (OFP & dependent projects) will need to work together for this timeframe. I will try to get this topic on the TWS call on Monday (assuming we can get the following folks from OFP on Monday (alphabetical order) - Anil Vishnoi, Jozef Bazigal, Kamal Rameshan, Michal Rehak & hopefully Muthu/Shuva & Luis. I think the above answers all of your questions except one: Do you plan to continuously support the OFP-He of Beryllium until OpenDaylight project stops to support Beryllium? The answer to that is - yes. OpenFlow Plugin has to support OFP-He in Beryllium - as per ODL release / deprecation requirements.
