### Reverse Engineering Improvements
-There are a lot of improvements and bug fixes for reverse engineering functionality. There's more work to do, but the API is starting to stabilize and the tools have become very usable. Follow this [link](docs/4.0/cayenne-guide/re-introduction.html) to learn how to automate and control DB-First ORM flow.
+There are a lot of improvements and bug fixes covering reverse engineering functionality (aka "DB-first flow"). There's still more work to do to make it perfect, but the API is starting to stabilize and the tools have already become very usable (as in actually used in production on many projects). Follow this [link](/docs/4.0/cayenne-guide/cayenne-guide-part4.html) to learn hwhat DB-First flow is all about and how to use it.
### Cayenne Crypto Improvements
