Microprofile 2.2 comes with open tracing 1.3: [https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.microprofile/releases/microprofile-2.2](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.microprofile/releases/microprofile-2.2) I've seen the open tracing bridge: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/opentracing-bridge.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/opentracing-bridge.html) Do I still have to add the co.elastic.apm:apm-opentracing library, or just the agent at runtime? ---
