IMPORTANT IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM AN OLDER VERSION OF BURP:
a) Your previous backups will no longer work, due to changes in the
manifest files. You will also need to move old backups aside in order to
continue to make new backups.
b) Your old config files will need some fields to do with SSL added to them.
See the man page and the examples in the 'configs' directory for help.
IMPORTANT FOR MY ENCOURAGEMENT AND THE FUTURE OF BURP:
If you have tried burp, I really want to hear from you to find out what
you like about it, what you don't like, what new features you would like,
how you have been using it, whether it has helped you, or anything that
you would like to tell me. I am currently working in the dark!
