Clarify standards for vendor inclusion criteria. #2238

Description

@austinlparker

In regards to https://opentelemetry.io/ecosystem/vendors/, there have been some questions arising about what exactly 'Distribution' and 'Native OTLP' mean.

Upon investigation, vendor support is clarified in the specification @ https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/vendors.md; However, this does not align with the columns on that page. That said, this offers some possible paths:

  • Update the vendor page to align with the specification (remove 'distribution' and 'native otlp', change to 'supports opentelemetry' and 'implements opentelemetry')
  • Update the specification to add greater specificity in categories
  • A secret, third option
