Yes Luis, this is what i was trying to explain. We should have generic
interfaces for external application that allows them to subscribe for the
OF messages from specific switch and a notification mechanism to deliver
the OF messages. I think Alex also agrees to that but he need some pointers
on how it can be achieved with the current architecture.

Jozef will you have some time to suggest pointers to Alex on how we can
achieve that in the lithium plugin code base? I will also try to look at it
sometime today and provide my comments.

Thanks
Anil
