It is not maintained, no one develops or maintains it. I successfully
build it on windows using the latest snmp libs, however it would be
much better if there was actually a maintainer. I sadly can't take
care of it alone and it does not make sense to keep a non maintained
extension in php. As snmp is not the most popular extension, I do
understand that it is really helpful to have good snmp support with
php. That's why I made a call for volunteers instead of putting it in
the "to be moved out" category.
Do you feel like you can give it some love?
Cheers,
