Hi All,

OpenTelemetry has applied to move from Sandbox to Incubation.

PR: https://github.com/cncf/toc/pull/619

Due Diligence (DD) doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f4WQR6K84giyOCKjCsqcoVA8YUIzBhWZDVo3CwM1wuk/edit

Cornelia Davis and I are TOC sponsors for OpenTelemetry. DD has been reviewed by TAG Observability.

OpenTelemetry incubation involves OpenTracing project being deprecated and archived. Deprecation plan can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WgSQ7ZvzO-JHeZi_ECRC7dwIbJYHPoYSXJqS1hLDJgI/edit#

The public comment period is now open for 2 weeks, and all TAGs, end users, TOC members, and community members are welcome to comment by replying to this thread.

Thanks,

-alena
