  Since the introduction of a MCS (Magnetic Coupling between Stripes)
phenomenological model [cond-mat/9902355, to be published in J.
Superconductivity] for hole-doped cuprates many new experimental data have been
presented in the literature as evidence in support of the MCS model. We
consider here recent data and the MCS model which is based upon experimental
facts, namely, the presence of (i) stripes; (ii) spin fluctuations, and (iii)
two order parameters (for pairing and for long-phase coherence) in hole-doped
cuprates. We discuss also the superconductivity in the s-wave NdCeCuO cuprate.
