It should be fine, until there is no overhead of maintaining the library for application not using OpenFlow. Thanks Prasanna

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.

If we can move it to OpenFlow plugin for now, that seems right. --Colin On Wed, Jul 26, 2017 at 4:53 PM, Anil Vishnoi <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: As a openflow committer hat on, I also don't have any strong objection here.

Hence we thought a central place would be better. Otherwise I don't see much problem in putting it into OpenFlow Plugin.

The fact that lldp "is a protocol" doesn't seem like a compelling argument for why it can't go in the OpenFlow plugin project to me, but maybe I'm missing something. Abhijit, is there something I'm missing for why it shouldn't go in OpenFlow plugin? --Colin On Wed, Jul 26, 2017 at 2:08 PM Sam Hague <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: On Wed, Jul 26, 2017 at 8:50 AM, Colin Dixon <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Thanks! I take it the conclusion was that this shouldn't be part of the OpenFlow plugin project? The discussion leaned to a new project. I think moving to openflowplugin would be easiest, but lldp is a protocol and doesn't make sense to be there. --Colin On Sat, Jul 22, 2017 at 11:57 AM Sam Hague <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello TSC, I have included the liblldp to the list of project proposals. I would like to start the two week discussion. This proposal is contingent on the plan to spin out the liblldp project from the controller. The goal was to get this started so we can get this started if we wanted it in for the nitrogen release.
