What?
Deprecate influxdb and experimental-prometheus-rw metric outputs and communicate their eventual removal in v3
Why?
We have been moving toward supporting otel as the main output. It does take a lot of work to maintain mulitple outputs, especially well as is evident by the issues for influxdb and prometheus remote write.
Given the maturity of the open telemetry metric system and the existance of extensions for output we have decided to concentrate on having a single well maintained output in the core.
