I think my overriding concern is to minimise merge issues when we periodically upgrade to subsequent releases of net-snmp. I am more than happy to feed back any bugs I might find but the grey area is knowing exactly which part should be fixed.
Personally speaking, the old-school code in snmpNotificationProfileTable.c is a lot easier to follow than the auto-generated snmpNotificationFilter files.
