Hello Eric,

I'm willing to attend but whether I will be able to attend will depend 
on when the IRC-chat will be held. I'm one of the Net-SNMP developers. 
Most work on the Windows ports (MSVC, Cygwin, MinGW) is done by me but 
as one can see in the git tree I make contributions all over the 
Net-SNMP tree.

Bart.
