I see a couple of contributors from Omnition, so obviously, this company is dedicating [some] resources to OpenCensus. But their website [1] says "We're still in stealth." Am wondering if this is what they are up to or there is more? Anyways, good work everyone!

Founder of Omnition here. We are the primary maintainers of the OpenCensus agent and collector services. OpenTelemetry which is the result of the OpenCensus and OpenTracing merger is also inheriting these. Omnition is building a distributed tracing backend. If anyone is interested to find out more you can email me directly: spiros at omnition.io. For those interested to contribute or use OpenTelemetry, checkout out: - https://opentelemetry.io/ - https://github.com/open-telemetry - https://gitter.im/open-telemetry/community

I thought that OpenCensus originated at Google. Does it mean Google no longer contributes any resources to OpenCensus development and long term success?

Google is heavily involved as well, in both the client libraries and the agent development. In addition to Google, Omnition, Microsoft and others are also major contributors. All of the OpenCensus community is moving over to OpenTelemetry, Google and Omnition included.
