Significant changes should go through the [OpenTelemetry Enhancement
Proposal](https://github.com/open-telemetry/oteps) process.

Small changes, such as clarifications, wording changes, spelling/grammar
corrections, etc. can be made directly via pull requests.
Smaller changes can follow a shorter process:

- [Create an issue](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/issues/new/choose)
in this repo and describe the proposed change.
- Follow the [issue workflow](#issue-triaging) and make sure the issue is accepted with
a "Yes" response. If the response to the issue is not "Yes" then do not create a PR
that implements the change since it will be rejected.
- Once the issue is accepted the assignee can work on it and create a PR that implements
the change described in the issue.

Trivial changes, such as clarifications, wording changes, spelling/grammar
corrections, etc. can be made directly via pull requests and do not require an associated
issue.
