 - Most of the instrumentations have the same version. If you are going to develop a new instrumentation it would probably have `X.Y.dev` version and depends on `opentelemetry-instrumentation` and `opentelemetry-semantic-conventions` for a [compatible version](https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/#compatible-release). That means that you may need to install the instrumentation dependencies from this repo and the core repo from git.
