This morning we (Keith, Ian) met with an assortment of the NET-SNMP
developers / contributors (primarily Bart Van Assche) to discuss how we
could best help the project. The meeting went well, at least form our
perspective.
The pain points we identified were:
* bug mountain
* help users on the mailing list
* patch / MR handling process
* move out of SourceForge
* clean up headers in /include/net-snmp/system/ which are a mess and
have import loops
* #ifdef hell / too many supported configurations
Keith is currently focused on streamlining the process of handling merge
requests, which will make it easier to handle the bug mountain. I will
probably be focusing on the headers for now in hopes that it will make
other processes easier as well. We can help on the repo move whenever
y'all are ready to pull the trigger on that.
