At the OpenStack conference in Boston, Su-hun Yun of NEC participated in 
the Networking Panel and talked about their OpenFlow implementation for 
OpenStack.  Su-hun showed a recorded demo of the plugin they developed for 
Quantum that talked to an NEC OpenFlow controller.  Unfortunately, I have 
searched around looking for the demo or additional details and have not 
been successful.  For example, it was not clear if the plugin was going to 
be contributed to the Quantum project, open-sourced, or kept commercial.

Hello Folks,
I am interested in the use of OpenFlow technology with OpenStack. But 
honestly speaking, I have no deep expertise in OpenStack.Then let me ask 
questions.
 
Q1) In order to use openflow features with OpenStack, such as, Open 
vSwitch or OpenFlow capable HW switches, can I assume that all I should do 
for this is to develop a quantum plugin module for openflow under nova 
manager ?
Q2) Are there any open-source codes of quantum plugin for openflow ?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
