And that the final word, because the DOD certified it was so. Plus, VMS was "close source" only back then. There is now a port called OpenVMS. As for the VMS version of Ada RTL written in Bliss, that also proves my point of no "Ada only Run-Time System". An Alpha with GEM, well the Alpha was created in 1992. Not at the birth of Ada. But again GEM means no "Ada only Run-Time System".
