semi-OT: TestFlight.com beta testing closing

I'm trying to use the new TestFlight. I created a new distribution profile. This is supposed to include the Beta entitlement. I refreshed Xcode and the new profile appeared and was on the LC provisioning profile list. I selected it and created a standalone. Uploaded via the application loader.
On iTunes connect I see the dreaded "To use TestFlight Beta Testing, build 1.326.1 must contain the correct beta entitlement. For more information, see the FAQ". 

The FAQ states "To use the TestFlight app to test your prerelease build, it must be signed with an App Store Distribution Provisioning profile that includes the beta entitlement. New Distribution Provisioning profiles generated in the iOS Developer Center will automatically contain the beta entitlement.
If you have an existing Distribution Provisioning Profile that was generated before the launch of TestFlight Beta Testing, you must regenerate the profile."

Do I also have to add the <Entitlements><![CDATA[<key>get-task-allow</key><false/><key>beta-reports-active</key><true/>]]></Entitlements> key to StoreEntitlements.xcent or Entitlements.xcent or both? Is there a cookbook for this?

MacBook Pro
OSX 10.9.5
Xcode 6.1.1
LC 6.7.1

Mike,

Yes, I found HockeyApp yesterday as well. Looks very similar to TestFlight. We’ll probably end up giving that a go for now.

Thanks,
Chris
