Hi all!

There's a new proposal https://github.com/kroxylicious/design/pull/101

Introduce a new gateway routing strategy that uses the `PP2_TYPE_AUTHORITY` TLV from PROXY protocol v2 headers to identify the target broker. This enables deployments where TLS is terminated at a load balancer (such as AWS NLB or HAProxy) while Kroxylicious runs plaintext, with the load balancer forwarding the original SNI hostname as the PPv2 authority TLV.

Thanks to Hrishabh Gupta for creating this proposal

Cheers,
Rob Young
