 ### OpenTelemetry Protocol
 
-- No changes.
+- Allow for OTLP/gRPC exporters to handle endpoint configuration without a scheme while still requiring them to support an endpoint configuration that includes a scheme of `http` or `https`. Reintroduce the insecure configuration option for OTLP/gRPC exporters. ([#1729](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/pull/1729))

A scheme of https indicates a secure connection. When using `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` with OTLP/HTTP, exporters SHOULD follow the collector convention of appending the version and signal to the path (e.g. `v1/traces` or `v1/metrics`). The per-signal endpoint configuration options take precedence and can be used to override this behavior.

+| Endpoint (OTLP/gRPC) | Target to which the exporter is going to send spans or metrics. The endpoint SHOULD accept any form allowed by the underlying gRPC client implementation. Additionally, the endpoint MUST accept a URL with a scheme of either `http` or `https`. A scheme of `https` indicates a secure connection and takes precedence over the `insecure` configuration setting. If the gRPC client implementation does not support an endpoint with a scheme of `http` or `https` then the endpoint SHOULD be transformed to the most sensible format for that implementation. | `https://localhost:4317` | `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT` `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_ENDPOINT` |

This option only applies to OTLP/gRPC - OTLP/HTTP always uses the scheme provided for the `endpoint`.
