I have to admit I have no idea what you mean by "the list of services
needed by UDP Apps" if that doesn't basically start and end with the UDP
API.

Anything else needed by UDP apps isn't needed because they're UDP. And
having that list (of "things besides the UDP API") without a proper UDP
API wouldn't be very useful.
