+\page porting_icoco Porting ICoCo code/scripts from version 9.6 to version 9.7 (and above)
+
+From version 9.7 of MEDCoupling
+- the C++ class <b>ICoCo::MEDField</b> has been renamed into
+<b>ICoCo::MEDDoubleField</b>. This is to make a clear distinction with the newly created <b>ICoCo::MEDIntField</b>.
+- the method ICoCo::MEDDoubleField::getField() has been renamed into ICoCo::MEDDoubleField::getMCField() and
+a new method ICoCo::MEDDoubleField::setMCField() has been added.
+
+In Python, we keep the namespace in front of the name, and hence the two classes
+are respectively called <b>ICoCoMEDDoubleField</b> and <b>ICoCoMEDIntField</b>.
+
+The APIs of the various \ref para-dec have also been updated accordingly.
+
+See also the page \ref icoco.

-TODO: complete this section.
+The full definition of this interface is held in the opensource TRUST plaform repository 
+(sub-folder Outils/src/LIBICOCOAPI) that can be found here: 
+https://sourceforge.net/projects/trust-platform
 
+The MEDCoupling library provides the implementation of the <b>ICoCo::MEDDoubleField</b> and 
+<b>ICoCo::MEDIntField</b> classes used in some of the field exchange methods. We also provide
+the sequential and parallel interpolation tools which are often needed in such coupling (see
+\ref interpolation and \ref para-dec respectively)
+
+<b>WARNING: currently, no implementation of the ICoCo::MEDStringField object is provided yet, you are welcome
+to propose one if you need it.</b>
+
+<b>Note:</b> some class names have been changed in version 9.7, take a look at \ref porting_icoco
