Burp v1.4 beta now available

Summary: PortSwigger released a beta version of Burp v1.4 to Professional users, describing it as highly stable and suitable for normal day-to-day use despite likely bugs still to be flushed out. The beta period will last at least a month, a delay the post attributes to the time required for the WAHH rewrite, and free-edition users are pointed to an alternative solution.
Why it matters: Professional users are being asked to run a beta build for at least a month while bug reports are collected by direct email, so any team standardizing on this release is accepting an extended beta window with no stated fix timeline.
