 ----------
 
 - Datasette's database layer now emits `OpenTelemetry <https://opentelemetry.io/>`__ spans: one per query, covering the full round trip including time spent waiting for a SQL worker thread, plus separate child spans for the execution itself and for time spent in the write queue. Callback-style calls - :ref:`db.execute_fn() <database_execute_fn>`, :ref:`db.execute_write_fn() <database_execute_write_fn>` and ``db.execute_isolated_fn()``, the documented way for plugins to run arbitrary SQL - are covered too, carrying ``datasette.callback`` in place of the SQL text. Datasette core depends on ``opentelemetry-api`` only and never installs an SDK provider, an exporter or a sampler, so there is no effect and no measurable overhead unless tracing is switched on externally - normally with the standard ``opentelemetry-instrument`` agent. See :ref:`internals_telemetry`. (:issue:`1730`)
+- Every HTTP request now gets an OpenTelemetry ``SERVER`` span, named after the request method and matched route, carrying ``http.route``, the response status and W3C trace context extracted from inbound headers - so every database span has a request to belong to, and Datasette joins distributed traces started by a proxy or calling service. The query string is never recorded. See :ref:`internals_telemetry_requests`. (:issue:`1730`)
 
 Nothing is removed by the OpenTelemetry work: the ``?_trace=1`` query string parameter, the ``trace_debug`` setting and the :ref:`internals_tracer` module all continue to work as before.
