Open vSwitch and OVN are now separateOVN is now a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project:

● The OVN repo is now at https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn● OVN has independent governance (similar to OVS) and committers● The next OVS release (2.13) will not include OVN● OVN bug fixes are being backported to OVS 2.12

Still to come (?):

● Separate OVN mailing lists● Separate ovn.org website (volunteers wanted!)● Separate conference :-)
