Is it not possible to just provide the nbms for the original C/C++ support 
through the update center with a note. I remember installing it on 11.3 with 
the only glitch that Alt+up/down arrow navigation said no occurrences found. 

Introducing a new codebase might bring it's own issues and headaches such as 
separate installation of language server. 

Also, is there a wiki page where the integration effort is being documented? I 
read the Readme on CND branch which mentions copying a bunch of files but does 
not specify what issues we are facing in integration. Is it license related, 
API changes or cnd did something weird which is taking time? Or might have 
missed something.
