Hi,

2 questions:

1. In the latest blog post on Julia Computing, [Julia features in Intel’s Parallel Universe Magazine](https://juliacomputing.com/blog/2017/07/25/julia-in-intel-parallel-universe.html), you refer to [Intel’s Parallel Universe Magazine](https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/392601). [In Issue 29 on page 23 there is an article on Julia](https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/8a/d2/parallel-universe-issue-29.PDF).  
In the article it says the following:

> JuliaPro will soon ship with Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL) for accelerated BLAS operations and optimizations for multicore and the latest Intel® processors.

Are they talking only on the Enterprise version or will it hold for the free version of Julia Pro?

1. Any chance for a Julia Portable version? Maybe a collaboration with [PortableApps](https://portableapps.com/)?

Thank You.
