Hi Peter, It would be great to have the BLAST tools use tool data tables and Data Managers. Let me know what I can do to help. Thanks, Dan On Apr 7, 2014, at 11:48 AM, Peter Cock <p.j.a.cock@googlemail.com> wrote:

Hi Daniel,

Would you be OK with me/us incorporating your example Galaxy Data Manager [1] for NCBI BLAST databases http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/blankenberg/data_manager_example_blas... into the Galaxy BLAST wrappers repository https://github.com/peterjc/galaxy_blast/ under the MIT licence, and then extending it?

If you have a GitHub account I can do that as a commit with you as the author to make the attribution explicit.

See also https://github.com/peterjc/galaxy_blast/issues/22 where we're discussing this issue.

Thanks,

Peter
