Would I be right to guess the Penn State cluster is all 64bit Linux? Some of our cluster nodes are just 32bit, so I wanted to grab the 32bit binaries for faToTwoBit, twoBitToFa and liftOver - but this folder just contains liftOver at the moment: http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/linux.i386/ I guess I'll have to compile faToTwoBit and twoBitToFa from source... > .. > The licensing is murky, apparently free to use for personal, > academic, and non-profit use - but no mention about potential > redistribution or modification rights: > http://hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/src/unzipped/README > >> ...

That's fine for faToTwoBit and twoBitToFa, but... What about the liftOver tool? This is under the hg top level folder, and thus is NOT licensed for commercial users - only for personal, academic, and non-profit use. How is Galaxy able to use this tool on the public Penn State server?
