@MrAlias the release procedure says to do make verify, but there is no such target. Should it be make verify-versions?

I wasn't sure if I need to update versions.yaml in this PR or need to do it in a separate PR.

Ah, yeah, it should be make verify-versions.

I wasn't sure if I need to update versions.yaml in this PR or need to do it in a separate PR.

Yeah, I missed that. We should include a version bump in versions.yaml with this PR.

[tigrannajaryan]

versions.yaml updated.

[tigrannajaryan]

@MrAlias PTAL.

@MrAlias I am trying to run the next steps in the release procedure. I tried:

make add-tags MODSET=all

but it complains:

MODSET unset: set to taget module set from versions.yaml

What am I doing wrong?

(It may be easier for you to do the release, if you prefer that instead of teaching me how to do it).

[MrAlias]

Sorry about the delay. I've pushed tags for this release and made this: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto-go/releases/tag/v0.16.0

Should be good to go.

I'll touch base with you in chat about the failure. I would like to not have you blocked from making releases in the future!
