I don't think archiving CEP-32 is the right move, as Josh's point suggests that it should serve as a placeholder for OTEL in the Cassandra project. This isn't a topic that will go away.
What needs to happen in the current version of CEP-32 is an update and revision to the areas Dinish mentioned. Yuki was the originator of the CEP, so I think it would be good to hear from him on whether he wants to take up the revision or hand it off.
