Community News: Latest PECL Releases (06.01.2021)

Latest PECL Releases:

• datadog_trace 0.60.0
  Breaking change: Users that are not explicitly setting or using json encoding are not impacted but this breaking change. Users either requiring json encoding for special purposes to send traces to their own custom targets or relying on the Stream class (that was not part of the public api in src/api) will have to manually clone the classes from the previous release SHA and register themselves. This is discouraged because as of today, json causes a fallback to blocking sync transmission to the Datadog agent, while using messagepack we support the unblocking async transport to our agent.
