The Go SIG will remove Contrib modules that lack code owners. For each module, the removal is planned for no sooner than August 21, 2024, unless a code owner is found. The list includes the following modules:

  • go.opentelemetry.io/otel/detectors/aws/ec2
  • go.opentelemetry.io/otel/detectors/aws/ecs
  • go.opentelemetry.io/otel/detectors/aws/eks
  • go.opentelemetry.io/otel/detectors/aws/lambda
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/otellambda
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/otelaws
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/github.com/gorilla/mux/otelmux
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/github.com/labstack/echo/otelecho
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo/otelmongo
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/gopkg.in/macaron.v1/otelmacaron
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/propagators/aws
  • go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/samplers/aws/xray

For a full list of modules at risk for removal, see the Remove unowned moduled project board.

Why are those modules going to be removed?

As described in the Go Contrib contributions guidelines, all Contrib modules require a code owner so that the code is not abandoned. Code owners have the responsibility of maintaining the component, responding to issues, and reviewing pull requests.

I want to become a code owner! What do I do?

To become a code owner, you just need to open an issue.

The only requirements is that you're a member of the OpenTelemetry organization and have a good working knowledge of the code you seek to maintain.

We're looking forward to your requests!
