 # Changelog
 
+## Deprecation Notice
+
+Starting with [Jaeger v1.38](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger/releases/tag/v1.38.0) Jaeger supports the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP).
+[OpenTelemetry has recommended](https://opentelemetry.io/blog/2022/jaeger-native-otlp/) migrating to OTLP.
+
+Please check the [README](https://crates.io/crates/opentelemetry-jaeger) for more information.

 ## vNext
 
 ### Changed
 
-- **Breaking** Remove support for surf HTTP client [#1537](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust/pull/1537)
 - Update to tonic 0.11 and prost 0.12 (#1536)
 
-## v0.21.0
+### Removed
 
-### Changed
-- Previously, the opentelemetry-jaeger crate exposed both a Jaeger exporter and a Jaeger propagator. Going forwards, the Jaeger propagator functionality has been moved to a new crate [opentelemetry-jaeger-propagator](../opentelemetry-jaeger-propagator/) to prepare for opentelemetry-jaeger exporter deprecation. Starting with [Jaeger v1.35](https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger/releases/tag/v1.35.0), Jaeger supports the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP). [OpenTelemetry has recommended](https://opentelemetry.io/blog/2022/jaeger-native-otlp/) that Jaeger exporters be deprecated from OpenTelemetry SDKs in favor of sending traces to Jaeger clients using OTLP. An example and further discussion of how to consume OpenTelemetry spans with Jaeger can be found at [Introducing native support for OpenTelemetry in Jaeger](https://medium.com/jaegertracing/introducing-native-support-for-opentelemetry-in-jaeger-eb661be8183c).

-# OpenTelemetry Jaeger
+# OpenTelemetry Jaeger (Deprecated)
+
+**WARNING**
+As of [Jaeger 1.35.0], released in Sept 2022, ingesting the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) is stable and
+as a result, language specific Jaeger exporters within OpenTelemetry SDKs are [recommended for deprecation by the OpenTelemetry project][jaeger-deprecation].
+More information and examples of using OTLP with Jaeger can be found in [Introducing native support for OpenTelemetry in Jaeger][jaeger-otlp]
+and [Exporting OTLP traces to Jaeger][exporting-otlp].
+
+The opentelemetry-jaeger crate previously contained both a Jaeger exporter and a Jaeger propagator.
+To prepare for the deprecation of the Jaeger exporter, the Jaeger propagator implementation has been migrated to
+[opentelemetry-jaeger-propagator](../opentelemetry-jaeger-propagator/).
+
+The plan is to have 0.22.0 be the last release of the Jaeger exporter. This means that future versions of the OpenTelemetry
+SDK will not work with the exporter.
+
+If you have any questions please comment on the [Jaeger Deprecation Issue].
