How can I find out what other people are doing?

There is a general purpose discussion list

       net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net

To be added to (or removed from) this list, visit http://www.net-snmp.org/lists/net-snmp-users. Or you can send a message to the address 'net-snmp-users-request@lists.sourceforge.net' with a subject line of 'subscribe' (or 'unsubscribe' as appropriate).

To find out what the developers are doing, and to help them out, please read the PORTING file enclosed with the package.

There is also an net-snmp IRC channel set up on the freenode.net IRC chat servers (you can use irc.freenode.net to connect and/or see http://www.freenode.net/ for getting started with irc). Multiple core developers hang out there on a regular basis.
