Comment (by rhaas):
I am not sure of phasing out is possible since the new code does not read
old data files. Unless there is a converter for the data files this would
render old files unusable and would mean that groups cannot reproduce old
results. Note that being able to use the new LORENE code to re-solve for
the same set of physical parameters does not help since it would also
involve a new code and thus different results (or new bugs).
For the same reason I do not think that renaming is an option instead the
new LORENE should be named LORENE2 same as CarpetRegrid and CarpetRegrid2.
