Specifically a validator should: Specifically a validator should:
* Call `get_committee_assignment(state, next_epoch, validator_index)` when checking for next epoch assignments. * Call `get_committee_assignment(state, next_epoch, validator_index)` when checking for next epoch assignments.
* Join the pubsub topic -- `committee_index{committee_index % ATTESTATION_SUBNET_COUNT}_beacon_attestation`. * Find peers of the pubsub topic `committee_index{committee_index % ATTESTATION_SUBNET_COUNT}_beacon_attestation`.
* For any current peer subscribed to the topic, the validator simply sends a `subscribe` message for the new topic. * If an _insufficient_ number of current peers are subscribed to the topic, the validator must discover new peers on this topic. Via the discovery protocol, find peers with an ENR containing the `attnets` entry such that `ENR["attnets"][committee_index % ATTESTATION_SUBNET_COUNT] == True`. Then validate that the peers are still persisted on the desired topic by requesting `GetMetaData` and checking the resulting `attnets` field.

*Note*: If the validator is _not_ assigned to be an aggregator, the validator only needs sufficient number of peers on the topic to be able to publish messages. The validator does not need to _subscribe_ and listen to all messages on the topic.
