Issues which requires major version change due to breaking change
Feature Request
Follow-up to discussion #2855 - more specifically the suggestion to change the default to HTTP when metrics and logs are both covered by the OTLP exporter, see #2855 (reply in thread)
Motivation for the Change
(Copied from the discussion above)
As per latest spec HTTP is preferred over gRPC, see https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/ce50e4634efcba8da445cc23523243cb893905cb/specification/protocol/exporter.md?plain=1#L111-L114 and respective PR discussion: open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification#1969
There is an exception for already released SDKs but I would like to consider a change for the following reasons:
If so, provide a concise description of the problem.
This change should wait for a major bump of the exporter since it is a breaking change.
