Now while the language "CORAL" is not dead and is still being maintained
I can not imagine it ever being considered for a new project which would
certainly suggest it is on the way to extinction. The language that
really did for CORAL was Ada. CORAL IIRC was a British Ministry of Defence
creation for the same reason (but at an earlier time) that the DoD came
up with Ada.
