The import of the XML files from inside .por files isn't too complicated - my realm works importer is doing it for 2 (soon to be 3) game systems.

Foundry VTT provides core functionality which doesn't, by itself, directly support importing from anywhere. It is entirely up to community (or paid for) modules to provide any actual import/export functions.
