This is awesome! Can Google update the docs so that the links for external zipkin integrations work? They currently link in circles and there's no info on how to integrate into OpenTracing/Zipkin

Uh oh - are you referring to the docs on GitHub or the actual docs site (https://cloud.google.com/trace/docs/zipkin)?
Nevermind, I think we found it. Fixing now.
This part: https://cloud.google.com/trace/docs/zipkin#configure_zipkin_...

It doesn't show zipkin configuration :)

Yep, an issue with the anchor links that'll be updated soon. It's supposed to just link to a lower part of the page.

If you scroll down you'll see a top-level header also titled "Configure Zipkin tracers" that describes how to configure the Brave tracer. You don't really need to do anything special here - just point your Zipkin tracers at the Stackdriver Zipkin Collector rather than your existing one.
