In the previsous cycle we worked to improve this. Now it is +even easier and simpler to extend Dragonflow, and allow external vendors +to write their own drivers and applications. + +I also believe that our simplicity can be very appealing to users that +want a simple network virtualisation solution part of OpenStack. + +For the next cycle, I would like to see Dragonflow become a viable +choice for cloud deployments. This means a heavy stress on stabilisation, +deployment, and performance. + +I would also like to see new features make it into the release, such as +FWaaS, and LBaaS. I would also like to see the completion of the Kuryr +integration, and have Dragonflow as a reference network implementation +for Kubernetes. + +Thank you, +Omer Anson (oanson).
