+      <p>OpenStack is a cloud operating system that controls large
+	pools of compute, storage, and networking resources in
+	a datacenter.</p>
+
+      <p>OpenContrail is a network virtualization (SDN) solution
+	comprising network controller, virtual router and analytics
+	engine, which can be integrated with cloud orchestration
+	systems like OpenStack or CloudStack.</p>
+
+      <p>This work goal is to enable &os; as a fully supported
+	compute host for OpenStack using OpenContrail virtualized
+	networking. The main areas of development are the
+	following:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Libvirt hypervisor driver for bhyve.</li>
+	<li>Support for bhyve (via libvirt compute driver) and &os;
+	  platform in overall in nova-compute.</li>
+	<li>OpenContrail vRouter (forwarding plane kernel module) port
+	  to &os;.</li>
+	<li>OpenContrail Agent (network controller node) port to
+	  &os;.</li>
+	<li>Integration, performance optimizations.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>Since the last report the following items have been
+	completed, which allow for a working demo of OpenStack compute
+	node on a &os; host uisng OpenContrail solution for network
+	virtualization:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Port of the OpenContrail vRouter kernel module for &os;
+	  (MPLS over GRE mode only)</li>
+	<li>Port of the OpenContrail Agent for &os;</li>
+	<li>&os; version of a Devstack installation/configuration
+	  script with support for the OpenContrail solution (Compute
+	  node components only)</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>A demo was presented at &os; DevSummit during the BSDCan2014
+	in Ottawa.  Also, a meetup regarding the subject was organized
+	in Krakow, Poland.</p>
+
+      <p>Work on this project is sponsored by Juniper Networks.</p>
