On the other hand, if sources are reporting cumulative values, cumulative to delta conversion is needed to support Statsd type backends. -The future implementation for this conversion in the Collector is still under discussion. There is a proposal is to add a [Metric Aggregation Processor](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/1422) in the Collector which recommends a solution. +The future implementation for conversions in the Collector is still under discussion.
