I suppose what I meant to say was that since I was able to add the metazoa.ensembl.org biomart by modifying the existing biomart xml, would this not also work for VB's biomart instance? Or would this not be what you are looking for?
Hi Scott,
For information on adding Datasource tools to Galaxy, please see:
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Internals/Data%20Sources
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21531983
If your resource is using software that is already Galaxy-aware, you can often take an existing xml configuration (GALAXY_ROOT/tools/data_source/*.xml) and make a copy to modify for your needs. Please let us know if we can provide additional information.
Thanks for using Galaxy,
Dan

Given this increase of Galaxy in our vector biology community, what is the policy for adding a new server to "Get Data" and is there information on formatting our results appropriately (i.e., using a REST interface)? Our NIH BRC server is www.vectorbase.org.
