New Features
RUBY-3612 OpenTelemetry (PR)
When the feature is enabled, Ruby driver traces driver operation and the corresponding server commands nested under the operation. Tracing can be enabled per Mongo::Client instance (by setting the tracing option to true), or globally via the OTEL_RUBY_INSTRUMENTATION_MONGODB_ENABLED environment variable.
RUBY-3552 and RUBY-3588 Deprecate support for server versions 3.6 and 4.0
Support for MongoDB server versions 3.6 and 4.0 is now deprecated, and will be removed in version 2.24.0 of the Ruby driver. If you are using MongoDB server version 4.0 or older, please upgrade to at least version 4.2.
