It seems healthy to have options, almost like the universe is healing a bit after oracle bought Sun. I can't imagine better hands bringing the oxide system together than that team. As an engineer who works entirely with Linux anymore, I pine for the days of another strong Unix in the mix to run high value workloads on. Comparing openvswitch on Linux, to say, the crossbow SDN facility on Solaris, I'd take crossbow any day. Nothing "wrong" with Linux, but it is sorely lacking in "master plan" levels of cohesion with all the tooling taking their own path, often bringing complexity that requires even for abstraction with yet more complicated tooling on top.
