Developer Portal returns with no sign of ios 7 beta 4 release

iOS7b4
Apple has obviously been working hard to get its Developer Portal back online, and functioning, for those who are currently paying to have access to it.
Considering the attack on the service happened just over 5-days ago, the speedof the restoration of the portal’s main iOS and Mac resource services, (we think), is pretty darn impressive.
Sadly, though, for those who have been waiting to hear news on the latest iteration of Apple’s upcoming mobile OS, there’s still no word on when we can expect to seeiOS 7 (Beta 4).

As of right now, the latest available iOS beta downloads on the iOS Developer Center are that of iOS 7 (Beta 3). Originally seeded to developers on July 8, the taking down of the Developer Portal to fix reported security holes found by UK researchers has greatly impacted the direct (and over-the-air) distribution of iOS Betas to developers, with the disruption most notably seeing iOS 7 (Beta 4) now running about a week behind Apple’s usual fortnightly seeding schedule.
It is not yet clear when the software will become available to developers. Although,(if we had to take a guess), we would probably say the software is still a few weeks out.
