The distinction between working group and SIG has been confusing to everyone, and so the GC has decided to do away with the term "working group" (WG) and use only the term SIG.

We also have some slack channels that are named "-wg":

Note that this also means we need to rename

  • @open-telemetry/instr-wg
  • @open-telemetry/wg-prometheus

This needs to be done by an GitHub Org Admin, cc @open-telemetry/technical-committee @trask @austinlparker

@open-telemetry/wg-prometheus is it ok for us to rename your team to something like @open-telemetry/prometheus-interoperability?

also is it ok for us to rename your repo from https://github.com/open-telemetry/wg-prometheus to something like https://github.com/open-telemetry/prometheus-interoperability-spec?

I would prefer that we archive the repository. We haven't used it in years, and it is probably misleading

prometheus-interoperability works for me

thanks!

I've renamed and archived the repository

and updated the team name to @open-telemetry/prometheus-interoperability

I didn't find any uses of the old team name in code, but it did break past @mentions of the old team name, I don't think I realized that would happen (unlike repo renames where github handles the redirects), will be more clear beforehand on future team renames

I'll open a Service Desk ticket to archive this channel.

Thanks! Note, that if OpenTelemetry Admin is a channel manager we can also do it without a service ticket, although turnaround time was really quick so 🤷‍♂️

So all that is missing is removing the references in the document
