Yes, I can confirm its working..
in the GatewayESP8266 make sure to change from this:
#if defined(MY_USE_UDP)
#include <WiFiUdp.h>
#else
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#endif
to
#include <WiFiUdp.h>
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
You have to have both libraries instead of just one (wiFiUdp.h)
For case sensitive systems (Linux, OS X) also you have to have the correct upper/lower case in the library name.. it must be:
#include <WiFiUdp.h>
and NOT:
#include <WiFiUDP.h>
as in the the example mysensors file.
