Descrizione
OTLP retry spec
Transient errors MUST be handled with a retry strategy. This retry strategy MUST implement an exponential back-off with jitter to avoid overwhelming the destination until the network is restored or the destination has recovered.
It is not clear what is the suggested maximum backoff time here. It would be good to have that in the spec otherwise SIGs may choose their own value(could be too high or too low) and will lead to inconsistency.
