testing udp protocols

Hello, i am new to the grinder and I may have a stupid question.

I am considering using the grinder to test load a server with an UDP 
protocol, but currently i am not sure if the grinder allow for such 
test.
I have red that it can allow to test any protocol, but at the same time 
it well documented for TCP/HTTP based protocol but not for an udp one.

Is it stupid to consider the grinder for this ?

What would be the step to test this udp protocol. ? provide a udp client 
implementation as java library and call from jython? something else ?


I am not sure if this is the best place to ask for help, but i could not 
find a better forum on sourceforge. Please let me know a better place or 
any useful pointers.

kind regards.

JJ.
