   It would be nice indeed.   
      
   .NET is a popular choice for the business apps that   
   are VMS's bread and butter   
      
   As an illustration then Synergex seems to be pushing DBL for .NET!   
      
   .NET for VMS would give:   
   * C#, VB.NET and F# out of the box   
   * third party languages (like DBL!)   
   * ASP.NET MVC for web services and web apps   
      
   But it is also a huge thingy. It would require a lot   
   of VSI resources to port, test and support.
