How to deprecate a module ?



Hi,
I've just moved my Inline::C2XS module to InlineX::C2XS (after a bit of
discussion on the Inline mailing list) as it should never have been in the
"Inline" namespace to begin with.
So now I need to "deprecate" Inline::C2XS - so that those who find it on
CPAN will immediately recognise that it has been deprecated (and replaced by
InlineX::C2XS).

What's the procedure I need to follow ? I couldn't see anything on the PAUSE
menu that looked promising.

Cheers,
Rob
