Ideally less than 10 bullets.

• MD-SAL support
• L2GW support

• test coverage improvement

• No special requrement but normal opendaylight java environment

Known Issues and Limitations

• Particular known bugs and workarounds.
• https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Weather#Neutron_Northbound_must_be_loaded_before_any_other_JAXB_feature Neutron Northbound must be loaded before any other JAXB feature
  • workaround: load odl-neutron-service before any other jaxb feature. typically in karaf case, featuresBoot in etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg will be edited so that featureBoot includes odl-neutron-service in early place
• https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3423 Data missing from Neutron NB datastore
• https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4527 Security Groups : For "Other Protocol" rule, NeutronSecurityRule.getSecurityRuleProtocol() is set to NULL
• https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4550 SecurityGroupCRUD is not updated when a security rule is created/delted

For those bugs, typically from openstack view, it appears like the specific security rules don't work.
