Hi Dave,
Hi Jari,

Three followup questions:

- Does mlcscope provide functionality cscode doesn't?  That might
  be a point in favor of keeping it alive, unless you think it's
  not that important.

- If we obsolete mlcscope, would it make sense to create a new, empty
  mlcscope package which "requires" cscope so that cscope is automatically
  replacing mlcscope in existing installations?

- If so, would it also make sense if the cscope package creates a
  mlcscope symlink -> cscope to help people along which use mlcsope in
  scripts (if that makes any sense at all??


Thanks,
Corinna
