Descrizione

I am reviewing Logger specs as a preparation in implementing it in Erlang implementation and I have spotted that specs suggests using opentelemetry SD-ID when working with "legacy syslog" format.

Trace id, span id and traceflags SHOULD be recorded via SD-ID "opentelemetry".

This directly collides with the RFC 5424 Section 6.3.2. that states that all names not containing at sign (@) are reserved for IANA and should not be used unless registered. AFAIK we haven't registered such SD-ID in IANA yet.
