Where's most of the code?
This package is a layer on top of the core package, which you can find in our fork of the opentelemetry-go-contrib repo. As such, it only containts Honeycomb-specific functionality.
Our immedate goal is that our fork lives upstream in the opentelemetry-go-contrib project as a blessed, vendor-neutral way to get started.
