I noticed the opentelemetry java repo is pending a jaeger exporter.
For those who dont know opentelemetry is mostly copy pasting from census and with the disadvantage of losing history of what happened in census which is a partial view of what should have happened. while we have had less problems about census doing things wrong than OT, this combined project represents a mapping risk. even in census some mappings were done wrong and not fixed because bogdan didn't agree.
rather than repeat this problem of being on defensive I wonder if it makes sense to spike an opentelemetry zipkin exporter before someone else raises a bad one that results in mapping changes and dead issues to fix them.
anyone interested? I suspect this goes for all repos.
