That is a great point. I don't have any idea or plans about that to be honest :-) It sounds like you already have a bit of knowledge, what exactly would this require? All I know right now is that we are on the old Dropwizard metrics v3 and can't migrate to v4 - see [1],[2]. But if open telemetry is where the industry is headed it would make sense to do that as well. We have a Jira for migration to metrics Looking at the GitHub page [3] I see indeed that version 4.2.x is 'maintained' but developments for 5.x are 'paused'.
