If you go Juniper/Cisco/Brocade/Arista (none of which are particular open
sourcey), you'd get away from the weird Windows/Java management
requirements.  But if you were looking for something you could really poke
through, Cumulus is an interesting place to be and they support multiple
vendors in the 10g space.
