If you don't care about loosing or reordering of packets it is fine, other\
than that there is no much advantage of UDP over TCP in real life.

It is still in task list :-)

In any case if you need to coordinate some code that uses UDP into event
loop it is not hard at all. Technically
there is no problems to use UDP with booster::aio but you need to work
with sockets directly + basic_io_device

But you will need to create file descriptor on your own and send/recive on your own.

I use SF repository.
