Notes:

• Due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life (as of 2024-10-07), some of our dependencies (urllib3 and setuptools) have dropped support for this runtime version.
• For this release, we have temporary workarounds to pin these dependencies to the latest versions that are still compatible with Python 3.8.
• Long-term, we intend to align with the OTel policy for Python language version support. (see here under Python Version Support). As such, we will also drop support for Python 3.8 in 3 months.
