Summary
So, in summary, there's going to be a Music Production suite soon, and you're dropping this money to promote it?
Sounds like a great idea :).
Hmm any new apps other than

Brooklyn is a little far for me I'm afraid, and too short notice. Have fun, though.
Yeah, well, all this really
Yeah, well, all this really does is make me question whether or not I want to continue using PortableApps... now, tell me no one there will have any affiliation with the RIAA--then I'll be impressed.
Music
Well, considering that the main partners on this music project have both made their music available online in MP3, AAC, OGG, FLAC and ALAC formats at name your own price downloads (including free) and are making available the stems and vocals from a song each as part of the suite for remixers to use under a CC license, I'd say you're OK to continue using PortableApps.com
Actually they will be affiliated with a newer organization.
The Music And Film Industry Association of America™ (MAFIAA™).
They have been around since 2006.
Check out their website: http://mafiaa.org/
Cheers
Heh
I love that people still reference that site. It's still the best April fool's joke I've done so far.
LOL!
Got to love this:
Nice joke!
...
Pirate Bay just referenced it last week, too. In their last mainpage message (the ACTA treaty leak for the curious) they had a picture of a guy holding a briefcase that said "MAFIAA" on it.
I think you coined a new term, John.
That well be cool I would
That well be cool
I would love to have come, but I'm in va 
Will there be any pictures/videos of it?
Yeah
We're gonna post some via OpenSourceHipHop.org probably by Tuesday or Wednesday.
Was there any pictures?

HOLY PORTABLEAPPS!
THIS IS EPIC!!!
I wish I lived closer to Brooklyn, NY. D:
Audacity 1.3.x?
I know it's kind of a leap, but is this indication that Audacity 1.3.x is coming soon to PortableApps.com? There are features in 1.3 not present in 1.2 that I need and that's just for making ringtones. I don't think anyone takes the "beta" tag seriously, including Audacity's authors -- especially them.
No
As stated earlier, we will NOT push "beta" software as stable. It's Audacity's call, not ours. If they call it a beta, then in their mind it is not fit for production use. We will be releasing Audacity Beta as a PAF as time permits but the stable version will be the one promoted to most users.

Damn if I didn't have to be in Vermont tomorrow I would have totally taken the 2 hour trip just for that (compared to 6-7 from Vermont xD)
If you're a PortableApps
If you're a PortableApps forum 'regular' attending this event, identify yourself to John so he can get a group photo. That would kick booty!
