From @mx-psi > Speaking as a Collector contrib maintainer, I just wanted to say that I am not going to continue reviewing this PR or start reviewing other future PRs related to the Datadog APM receiver to avoid any semblance of conflict of interest given my role both as a maintainer on this repository and as a member of Datadog's OpenTelemetry team. And from their GitHub profile: > Open Source Software Engineer at Datadog , focusing on OpenTelemetry What's the conflict of interest exactly? You work at Datadog, supposedly to work on OSS, with a focus on OpenTelemetry and you don't want to review Datadog related code for OpenTelemetry? Sounds weird, that kind of profile is exactly the type of person who should be reviewing the code, they have knowledge of both sides of it. Rather, it sounds like Datadog is walking back and don't want to support OpenTelemetry if it means it'll support their own tooling, instead of just others.
