I implemented DTLS support now and it fits quite well to the current API. A few days ago I opened a pull request on github [1] since I've seen that other patches were applied to libressl in the same manner. If you guys prefer patches via mailing list let me know. It would be great to get some feedback to the patch, to hear what I can improve it and to see what the chances are for you to apply this patch. Thanks!
