Good job guys. I reckon we might make users' life easier if we change naming strategy for default security groups to 'default-$tenant_id' On the other hand this is not a priority since as an admin user I guess you can already get that information properly choosing the fields to display. Salvatore

Yes, it is a very common use case. Nowadays, everybody who deploys Xen, KVM, or LXC without a Cloud Management System is actually using Open vSwitch. In that case you can program Open vSwitch using its own interface to provide virtual networks. When deploying Openstack, you can use Open vSwitch

Hi Peter, So far I think this is your best bet: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/quantum/ There might be other documents, but none that I'm aware of. There's plenty of awesome people writing on their own blogs about openstack, and possibly about developing for Neutron. planet.openstack.org
