[rdo-list] Shipping OVS 2.6?

[David Moreau Simard]

(+Wes)

We have jobs that test upgrades from N-1 to N but unless mistaken, these do
not have the pending repository (where OVS 2.6.1 is currently staged)
enabled.

As of now, these upgrade jobs would pick up the new OVS only when it is
promoted to the testing repositories.

This is an excellent point though. Since this is a significant OVS version
upgrade, we should definitely put some effort into testing it. Testing it
in the context of CI (i.e and run ping test at the end) and looking at what
really happens to running virtual machines in production are two different
things though.
There could be a loss of connectivity for example.
