[MrAlias]

This module has been identified to not have an owner. Based on the project's ownership policy, this module will be deprecated and then removed.

How to keep this module

For this module to continue in this repository, it needs a sponsor.

If you would like to sponsor this module and become an owner, please comment in this issue about your desire. As an owner you will assume the following responsibilities:

• You will need to be a member of the OpenTelemetry organization and maintain that membership.
  • If you are not an existing member, we can add you to the community. This is not a disqualification, but something you will need in the process of becoming a sponsor.
• You will be responsible for keeping up with the instrumented library. Any "upstream" changes that impact this module need to be proactively handle by you.
• You will be expected to review any Pull Requests or Issues created that relate to this module.
• You will be responsible for the stability and versioning compliance of the module.

You will need to have a good working knowledge of the code this module is instrumenting and, ideally, familiarity with the existing module code.

How this module will be removed

If a sponsor is not identified for this module within the next 4 weeks from the date this issue was opened, it will be deprecated. After that deprecation notice has been published, this module will be removed from this repository and no more versions of the module will be published.

Resurrection

If a sponsor is found after the module has been deprecated or removed, these operations can be reversed (i.e. coded added back, deprecation notice removed).

Since this is used by kubernetes, i'll step up to own this. I'm happy to have other codeowners, if others are interested.
