Hi team,

I finally created the package for burpsuite.
The git repository is updated and the package can be rebuild with the 
gbp buildpackage.

The dsc is also available at mentors.d.n [1].

The ITP bug was opened [2].

Can some DD validate if it is OK and if so, send to the NEW queue?


Some background:
Acknowledgement for packing: the upstream is aware of our initiative to 
packaging it for Debian and is happy with that.

Debian watch:
The upstream currently don't have a mechanism that one can easy monitor 
with a debian watch file. Currently the file in the package wont work. I 
e-mailed the upstream and he stated that will be implementing a new 
webservice in the next months, which will allow us to automate the 
identification of a new release version.

Debian Section:
I used non-free/net

As suggestion, we have sections as lisp, zope/plone, electronics, etc.
What your thoughts about a security section?

Lintian:
The package isn't 100% lintian clean but there is an explanation for all 
of the messages.
I created the lintian overrides files and add the information there.


Thanks team.

If there is any questions or space for improvements, please let me know.
