Hi all,

In reviewing the change [1], the question arose as to whether any project other 
than neutron-dynamic-routing has been using the "next_hop" field included in a 
callback notification emitted when FIP association is updated [2]. The question 
as to whether to deprecate or simply remove this field has arisen due to the 
history of inclusion of this field in the notification. It was initially 
included to support BGP dynamic routing in Mitaka when it was in-tree. However, 
due to the bug [3] neutron-dynamic-routing no longer requires this field be 
included in the notification and its inclusion now seems to have little value, 
and this value shouldn't really be identified by code inside the neutron repo 
anyway. I wanted to poke the mailing list to give folks a chance to take a look 
and make sure they aren't relying on this. >From what I can tell there are no 
uses of this inside the neutron repo, nor are there any other consumers inside 
the stadium.  For maintainers of stadium projects, could you please confirm or 
debunk my analysis of the situation?
