Without a doubt, use pysnmp. The newest version is being paid for by 
the Python Software Foundation, and it includes support for SNMPv3. The 
documentation might be lacking though.

yapsnmp, IIRC, is just a wrapper around the net-snmp libraries, while 
pysnmp is a pure Python implementation. yapsnmp does come with a MIB 
parser though, not sure if pysnmp has one working yet.
