Until then, I will keep an up-to-date (-mm) patch in the tarball http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/udp-lite/files/udplite_linux.tar.gz This has applications as well. I would value any more input: the suggestion to use SOCK_DGRAM has already been integrated and proved a really good idea (much less to patch, cleaner code). Usually an update is there on the same day the new kernel comes out. Thank you for your replies and comments, I will be back when the v6 side is ready.
