Description

In november 13th meeting in order to loosen the dependency with a specific core version we decided to relax semantic conventions version in contrib dependencies. This is because we are pretty confident that we will not break backward compatibility.
This may apply to other packages from -core that packages in -contrib are depending on. Maybe some test utils?

Nice to have:

  • rework tests to tests against baseline and latest semconv

Research direction

Start by reviewing the contrib package dependency declarations for semantic-conventions and the linked November 13th meeting decision. Identify which other -core dependencies are in scope, then inspect the existing tests and compare coverage against baseline and latest semconv versions. Done means the dependency constraints are relaxed without breaking compatibility, with the optional test rework completed if included.
