The beta version of VBFNLO 3.0 has several new features compared to the current stable release 2.7. These are:

Enhancements and bug fixes in BETA 2:

• Add possibility for Breit-Wigner or Passarino CPS scheme distribution of Higgs boson (VBF-H only, process IDs 100-117,1010)
• Fix bug in K-matrix unitarisation of $W^+W^-jj$

Enhancements in BETA 1 with respect to VBFNLO version 2.7.1:

• Several new processes are available:
  WWj, ZZj production including the loop-induced gluon-fusion contribution
• Interface according to the Binoth Les Houches Accord (BLHA) added for all VBF processes with fully leptonic decays
• K-matrix unitarisation procedure implemented for the two dimension 8 operators O_{S,0} and O_{S,1}.

PLEASE BE AWARE: This beta version includes new code that has not been as extensively tested and checked as a normal release. The new additions to the code may also have affected features or processes that were present in the last stable release. Therefore any results obtained with this beta version should be treated with caution!
