+   - TCP flags matching: OVS now supports matching of TCP flags.  This
+     has an adverse performance impact when using OVS userspace 1.10
+     or older (no megaflows support) together with the new OVS kernel
+     module.  It is recommended that the kernel and userspace modules
+     both are upgraded at the same time.
+   - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports will change to
+     IANA-assigned numbers in a future release.  Consider updating
+     your installations to specify port numbers instead of using the
+     defaults.
+   - OpenFlow:
+     * The OpenFlow 1.1+ "Write-Actions" instruction is now supported.
+     * OVS limits the OpenFlow port numbers it assigns to port 32767 and
+       below, leaving port numbers above that range free for assignment
+       by the controller.
+   - ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 man page will contain graphviz/dot
+     diagram only if graphviz package was installed at the build time.
+   - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.11
+   - ovs-dpctl:
+     The "show" command also displays mega flow mask stats.
+   - ovs-controller has been renamed test-controller.  It is no longer
+     packaged or installed by default, because too many users assumed
+     incorrectly that ovs-controller was a necessary or desirable part
+     of an Open vSwitch deployment.

+v2.0.0 - 15 Oct 2013
 ---------------------
+    - The ovs-vswitchd process is no longer single-threaded.  Multiple
+      threads are now used to handle flow set up and asynchronous
+      logging.
     - OpenFlow:
       * Experimental support for OpenFlow 1.1 (in addition to 1.2 and
         1.3, which had experimental support in 1.10).
+      * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups.  This
+        does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
+        software switch.
+      * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.2+ meters.  This
+        does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
+        software switch.
       * New support for matching outer source and destination IP address
         of tunneled packets, for tunnel ports configured with the newly
         added "remote_ip=flow" and "local_ip=flow" options.
+      * Support for matching on metadata 'pkt_mark' for interacting with
+        other system components. On Linux this corresponds to the skb
+        mark.
+      * Support matching, rewriting SCTP ports

     - Added ovs-dev.py, a utility script helpful for Open vSwitch developers.
