[CP2K:1090] Calculations on non-orthorhombic cells

Hello 
I would like to know if this statement is still true in cp2k :
 decouplings are not implemented for non-orthorombic cells..

So is it possible to do calculations for non-orthorhombic cells with 
periodic boundary condition in only 2 directions

Thank you

Emile
