Hi guys,

This is just to let you know that there's a new version of Arachni.

Arachni is a high-performance (Open Source) Web Application Security
Scanner Framework written in Ruby.

This version includes lots of goodies, including:
* A new light-weight RPC implementation (No more XMLRPC)
* High Performance Grid (HPG) -- Combines the resources of multiple
nodes for lightning-fast scans
* Updated WebUI to provide access to HPG features and
context-sensitive help
* New plugins
* ReScan ? It uses the AFR report of a previous scan to extract the
sitemap in order to avoid a redundant crawl.
* BeepNotify ? Beeps when the scan finishes.
* LibNotify ? Uses the libnotify library to send notifications for
each discovered issue and a summary at the end of the scan.
* EmailNotify ? Sends a notification (and optionally a report) over
SMTP at the end of the scan.
* Manual verification ? Flags issues that require manual
verification as untrusted in order to reduce the signal-to-noise ratio.
* Resolver ? Resolves vulnerable hostnames to IP addresses.
* Accuracy improvements and bugfixes for the XSS, SQL Injection and
Path Traversal modules
* New report formats (JSON, Marshal, YAML)
* Cygwin package for Windows
