## Human Summary
Google ADK Python v2.9.2 fixes an issue with OpenTelemetry telemetry by preserving event names on platforms outside of Agent Engine.

## Agent Summary
Google ADK Python release v2.9.2 addresses telemetry handling: OpenTelemetry event names are now preserved across non-Agent Engine environments instead of being dropped.

## Body
Google has released ADK Python version 2.9.2 (2026-09-18). The release specifically refines telemetry behavior by updating how OpenTelemetry (OTel) event names are processed. Previously, event names were being dropped inadvertently; with this fix (commit 9110770), OTel event names are only dropped when running on Agent Engine, preserving them across other environments to provide consistent tracking.

## Recommended actions
- Upgrade google-adk Python package to version 2.9.2 if accurate OpenTelemetry event names are needed outside of Agent Engine.
