Hi guys,

while I am doing progress on the implementation of this blueprint, I
realized something which might be a blocker for it.
It seems indeed that the bigswitch and cisco plugins do not support
the L3 APIs; moving them into core will therefore violate one of
Quantum principles, ie: the core API should be the smallest set of
APIs supported by all the plugins.

The NVP plugin has the same issue, but this is currently being
addressed by another blueprint targeting Grizzly-3.
I think Sumit and Edgar are respectively the maintainers for these
plugins; at a first glance I do not see plans for adding Layer-3
support in the Grizzly release.
If that is the case, I suggest postponing moving l3 apis into Quantum
core to the next release, just as we did for the provider networks
API.

What are your thoughts?

Regards,
Salvatore
