NOTE: There are currently internal changes happening in CPE Team (we will see if the name even remains), which caused that the last week update didn’t came out (it was also caused by the login issue in community blog, but that was just a coincidence) and caused change in the content (some sections are currently missing). We apologize for that and we see how the format will look in the future.
