Generally, our direction for specification sponsorship is to promote general approvers of the specification (see #3821).

This change proposes having a set of Entity (and Resource) specification approvers from the Entities SIG. The intention is to give the active specification work this SIG is doing a clear indication of expertise and ownership within OpenTelemetry.

The intention is that this role will be folded back into general Specification Sponsorship role once Entities has completed its work.

  • Phase 1 is resource + entity work. Approval on resource specification would be removed post Phase 1 for general spec sponsors. At the completion of Phase 1, it is expected that this approver group can be removed and some Entity approvers may be promoted to Spec Sponsor.
  • Phase 2 for entities would be a new project proposal. If this project is accepted, we could then re-create an entity only approver delimination in the specification for the same reason.

This is a proposal to give a clear signal to Specification Maintainers the approval status of PRs coming from the Entities SIG (green check marks and clear ownership of those).
