Love the enthusiasm. As Microsoft, we are contributing heavily to open Telemetry; as you had pointed out our aim moving forward is to allow customers to use OTLP exporter (https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/blob/master/exporter/otlpexporter/README.md) to send in data to Azure Monitor as well. This allows customers to be vendor agnostic while welcoming the most community driven contributions.The most up to date roadmap for OTLP is available here(https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/blob/master/docs/roadmap.md); most SDK's and exporters are supposed to GA by end of this year.
As this is an opensource project feel free to join in community meetings to contribute or to provide us with any valuable feedback that you may have.

- Thanks Ankit!
Is there anywhere I could see a timeline for the Azure Monitor exporter specifically? How will/can I send data to Azure Monitor? Are endpoints documented anywhere? Will there be some kind of endpoint per-datacentre where all the VMs I'm running within it will pass data to?
