post v1.1.0
------------------------
-
- - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
- "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
- "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
- level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
- at "emer" level.
- - The new "-s" option for "ovs-dpctl show" prints packet and byte
- counters for each port.
+ - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware
+ switching ASICs.
+ - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0.
+ - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0.
+ - OpenFlow:

+ - ovs-dpctl:
+ - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte
+ counters for each port.

+ - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions.
- ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.

+ - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
+ "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
+ "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at

+ at "emer" level.
- "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
