Add deprecation notice to `iaf_cond_alpha_mc` model documentation #3240

Closed jessica-mitchell closed 1 month ago

jessica-mitchell commented 3 months ago

Fixes #2461

Adding deprecation notice to the 'mc' models since the cm_default model is an improved implementation of compartmental neurons, as discussed in issue.

Models should be removed in an upcoming release. Info about NEAT, once that has progressed could also be added.

See Read the Docs output here: https://nest-simulator--3240.org.readthedocs.build/en/3240/models/iaf_cond_alpha_mc.html

Please do not remove "pp_cond_exp_mc_urbanczik" because this model has a specific function to archive information that is needed for Urbanczik-Senn plasticity. To my knowledge, this feature is so far not included in the new cm_default model. Also the "pp_cond_exp_mc_urbanczik" implements exactly the model used in the original publication by Urbanczik and Senn and should therefore remain in NEST.

LGTM, tiny change, I'll merge.
