+- `ErrSchemaURLConflict` is added to `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource`. 
+  This error is returned when a merge of two `Resource`s with different (non-empty) schema URL is attepted. (#4876)

+### Changed
+
+- The `Merge` and `New` functions in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource` now returns a partial result if there is a schema URL merge conflict.
+  Instead of returning `nil` when two `Resource`s with different (non-empty) schema URLs are merged the merged `Resource`, along with the new `ErrSchemaURLConflict` error, is returned.
+  It is up to the user to decide if they want to use the returned `Resource` or not.
+  It may have desired attributes overwritten or include stale semantic conventions. (#4876)
