Hi, Elliott

I'm very sorry for that. Currently I'm trapping in other work and couldn't finish the promised UDP porting work immediately. My SNMP library also want to work on SBCL/win32, but ...

From my view, the biggest issue for this work, is the implementation of WAIT-FOR-INPUT-INTERNAL for UDP usockets. On Windows, there's no "select()" UNIX system call, so we have to use "WSAEventSelect" instead. I have no idea if SBCL/win32 have correspond internal functions which could be called directly by usocket.

Regards,

Chun Tian (binghe)

I am willing to contribute time and code for the next week or so if someone can direct me to what needs work.
