Collaborator Server Version

Hi, While doing a Health Check on the Collaborator Server it would help if it returned the Version #. Especially for making sure a Private Server is up to date. Thanks

Thanks for this feedback. To date, we haven't made any changes to the Collaborator server features that break compatibility, so all versions of both the client and server can interoperate. In future, it is likely that we will add some new capabiltiies to Burp Scanner than depend upon some new behavior in the Collaborator server. At the time we do this, we will certainly add some version information to Collaborator polling responses so that the Burp client knows what features are supported. At that point, we'll also alert the user if their Collaborator server doesn't support everything that their instance of Burp supports. (In short, we have this in hand and in the roadmap.)
