Gabriel,

let's talk about this in the ovsdb meeting today. Some questions:

1. is this northbound simply a reader or can it also update as the current northbound does all CRUD operations?
2. is this separate from the southbound?
3. need a way to retrieve the whole database. We can pull it on demand or have a cache as the existing code works today.

Thanks, Sam
