Checkmk versions & editions

2.0.0i1	Checkmk Raw (CRE), Checkmk Enterprise (CEE), Checkmk MSP (CME)
1.6.0b3	Checkmk Raw (CRE), Checkmk Enterprise (CEE), Checkmk MSP (CME)

GUI metric plugins which were built for Checkmk 1.5 or older could access the variable MAX_CORES and the function indexed_color(). This was not possible in previous 1.6 releases which made these plugins incompatible.

Both names are available again for plugins in the path local/share/check_mk/web/plugins/metrics/.
