At Kong we actually like Envoy a lot, because we can deliver our superset features and ecosystem on top of any underlying proxy (NGINX, Envoy or anything that can process a stream or bytes).

That's what I thought you would do anyway whenever nginx loses its place in favor of Envoy not only because its obvious technical superiority but also its licensing situation, congratulations on making money off other people's work

We have been contributing back to the community with open-source projects and improvements to the other open-source projects we utilize, and using respectfully “other people’s work” in agreement to their licenses. Kong itself is open-source, and we have a long history of contributing back.
