@Kronos11 Here are our CI bits from the PR - https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-instrumentation/suites/12008283502/artifacts/630686154. Could you please use this package and test if the logs are exported as expected? Thank you!

I've done a few small tests, but this does seem to be working on a webforms application as well.

Removing milestone per @lachmatt suggestion.

@rajkumar-rangaraj, OTLP is stable now. Can we revisit this?

[Kielek]

SIG notes: Technically it should be possible. Moving back to vNext. Can be picked upped based on the contributor priorities

@Kielek I wanted to check if you still plan add automatic logging instrumentation support for .NET Framework applications in the near future.
