Wouldn't the cp/m-86 and mp/m-86(80) system calls serve as a good
guide for extensions?  Clock support appears in mp/m, and even as
early as cp/m-3.0, the iobyte is abandoned in favor of a more complete
device control scheme.

I would also suggest the CP/Net (now DRNet, I suppose) networking
support, for the transition of a stand-alone workstation to a
file-serving network node.  Though cp/net wasn't successful, drnet may
have a chance.
