Hi @davidesalerno. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a github.com member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Thanks @davidesalerno!

// for Listeners with condition Accepted: false but MUST count successfully

// Attached Routes whose Accepted condition is False or Unknown (or that

I haven't been following this as closely as I should, but maybe I can reword this to make sure I'm understanding it correctly:

  1. AttachedRoutes should always be set on each Listener, even if the Listener itself has not been accepted
  2. AttachedRoutes should only represent the number of Routes with the Accepted condition set to True that have been attached to this Listener

If so, I'm completely on board with point 2, but confused by point 1 (although I recognize that it's not new in this PR).

@robscott Exactly, I changed only point 2 since it is what the issue is requesting, instead for point 1 I can confirm that based on the doc it seems to work in this way.

hey Rob, so long story short, during the update of ListenerSet GEP (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/gateway-api/pull/4286/files) Nick questioned why we were counting Listeners not accepted as well, and well, me and @davidjumani copied the text from here.

In fact, the implementations today count just the accepted ones, but the text on the API description was wrong, so we are now "fixing it" and making it clear that AttachedRoutes MUST count just accepted routes.

Maybe @youngnick has some better wording here tho :)

@davidesalerno asked me to clarify here, my point is exactly his: we are touching here just what an attachedRoute means (eg.: instead of any attached route, just accepted attached routes) to reflect the same behavior of attachedListenerSets.

We are not touching the line that says "if a Listener on a Gateway has accepted=False it still MUST be added", this behavior should remain the same.

I think this is fine, since we will have the conformance tests to validate the correct behavior.
