A process that includes Excel is broken.

I work at Vegard IT GmbH as a senior consultant, focusing on collaboration software, Kubernetes, security, and automation. I primarily work with HCL Connections, WebSphere Application Server, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform, and Linux. My daily work occasionally leads to technical talks and blog articles, which I share here more or less regularly.

HCL released the fix in CR10, but the issue appeared again in CR13 and still occurs in CR14, in the Blogs component.
