Extracting or abstracting the language-specific RMS extensions tends to 
be the bulk of that porting project.

Capabilities of databases over RMS, ~never.

I've rarely met production apps using remote file sharing with FAL, and 
not in many years.

DCL remains incompetent at basic networking.

At basic networking from this millennium, that is.

RMS networking too, as there's nothing that would preclude RMS from 
being extended to use IP for FAL-like or even FAL-based access. With 
TLS.
