Special offer: I have stickers featuring the logo of the latest project by my team at VMware, OVN, the Open Virtual Network. I'll mail them to anyone (anywhere in the world) if you email me a postal address at bpfaff@vmware.com. Don't worry, I won't mail or email you anything else.

Thanks everyone for all the great questions and thank you Ben for your time. If you have any feedback about this session, please send us by clicking 'Support' at the bottom of this page and following instructions.

I tested my implementation of the first step; it worked OK except that there was a typo in an #include, which I've now fixed.

A blurb from Ben himself:

Hello, I'm a Principal Engineer at VMware working on VMware's NSX network virtualization product, and specifically on the Open vSwitch data plane component. I've been working on Open vSwitch since its inception in 2009 at Nicira Networks, which VMware acquired in 2012. Before Nicira, I received my Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford in 2007 and a B.S. in electrical engineering from Michigan State University in 2001. I've been a Debian developer since 1996 and a developer and maintainer of GNU PSPP since 1995. I am a Senior Member of ACM.

It was great to have all of you here from 15+ countries all over the world. Thank you once again and check back often for more updates by different companies.
