@DR9885 I've assigned the issue to the owners according to https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-contrib/blob/main/.github/component_owners.yml.

As far as I know, we don't have any control over publishing packages.

@ejsmith, it is not fully true. As a component owner you can request/approve/block releasing packages.

If you feel that we should have the new release, please follow this procedure https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-contrib/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-request-for-release-of-package

We are trying to handle such request on a daily basis.

@DR9885, current releases of these packages should work fine with OTel SDK/API 1..8.1. If it is not the case, please let us know about this.

In the queue there is some minor commits to be released. Procedure how to do this is included in my previous comment.

How can we request a release from a component owner? Influx only has alpha versions available on nuget and isn't targeting net8 yet. Do i ping @Havret here or raise a new issue?

[Kielek]

@mlapaglia, please check https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-contrib/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-request-for-release-of-package - this is how you can request new package version. Two examples #1836 and #1834.

If we speaking specifically about InfuxDB exporter - Havret is the component owner so he should accept this kind of PR.
.NET8 should be supported. This package has libraries for .NET6. .NET8 is backward compatible (we are even executing tests for .NET8 with .NET6 libraries)

@DR9885 what is it you're looking to achieve by having a 1.8.1 compatible version? There wouldn't be a stable version of these packages due to the semantic conventions being not stable yet.

The current 1.6.1-beta package is stable in all but the naming and should be able to be used with 1.8.1 of the core libraries.

I am closing this issue. Feel free to create PRs requesting releases for specific packages.
