GEP: Mesh Representation
What would you like to be added: As the GAMMA initiative seeks to create a model for service mesh implementations within Gateway API, it is necessary to have a mechanism for representing a mesh (follow link for definition) using the Gateway API.
This GEP covers the work to design and implement this mechanism.
As @shaneutt originally suggested, the first step will be implementing a provisional GEP that sets out the terms of what we're doing - the "What" and "Why" of the solution, and then once we're on the same page, we'll talk more about the "How".
Why this is needed: Without a way to represent a mesh using Gateway API, no other work can continue.
/kind gep
/area mesh
@keithmattix: The label(s) area/mesh cannot be applied, because the repository doesn't have them.
In response to this:
/area mesh
