Hello!
What are opportunities for developers to implement cross-platform udp networking ? Are they limited to Qt only? Are there other open-source libraries that can be used in couple with Qt?
I'm new to cross-platform network programming and searching for "best choice".

Yes, thay are supported at least on different U*ix flavours and Windows.

You don't have to provide any libraries. BSD sockets are bundled with the systems. Qt uses BSD sockets too, by the way.
