Hi OpenFlow Plugin committers,

Do you have any objections to putting the LLDP code currently in the
controller project into OpenFlow Plugin. Anil and I have voiced opinion
that it is OK to add it to OpenFlow Plugin. If no valid objection comes up
till Monday - we can consider it as a go ahead.

It just seems easier to me to put the code in OpenFlow plugin than to pull
a new project out of a hat that somehow doesn't behave like normal
projects. If we can move it to OpenFlow plugin for now, that seems right.
