What do you suggest I ask him? Whether he'll soon review the
patches/bugs in the tracker assigned to him? It's been years, so I think
we know the answer to that.

That's definitely a possibility. I'd personally prefer not to deal with
sourceforge/cvs, but this is fine if we can agree that the current place
for that code is the right one. My reasoning for splitting out this code
is that there are many other interfaces to cscope, and most of them are
NOT in the repo. This one is in the repo; is this because at one point
Darryl was actively maintaining it here? As it stands right now, the
presense of xcscope.el in the main repo implies that this interface is
somehow more actively supported than the others, and this simply isn't
true.

I could join the project as "the xcscope.el guy". Would that be
preferable to splitting it out? Or should I just go through the tracker
and send you patches?

Thanks
