Hi Jen, I'm not sure which date stamps you are looking at, since I think it is the other way round. The NCBI BLAST+ wrappers shipped with Galaxy are currently at version 0.0.11, both in galaxy-central and galaxy-dist, dated 12 July 2011, e.g. here is the current XML file for the BLASTN wrapper: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src/default/tools/ncbi_blast_plus/ncbi_blastn_wrapper.xml https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/src/default/tools/ncbi_blast_plus/ncbi_blastn_wrapper.xml Over on the Tool Shed, Edward Kirton has a forked copy of a much older version of these wrappers at v0.0.1. The push date of 7 Jun 2011 is probably from the toolshed migration, I believe the true date is well before that. Edward added support for using local BLAST databases as a new Galaxy datatype, along with wrappers for makeblastdb and dustmasker. Assuming these have proved useful, it would make sense to merge these changes into the main BLAST+ wrappers. I have CC'd the galaxy-dev mailing list (and Edward) which is probably a better place to discuss this than the galaxy-user list.
