Dear Xinwei, We obtain all of our SNP mappings directly from dbSNP, and thus will only provide a SNP131 track on hg18 if dbSNP provides the mappings. The other option is to do a lift down using our liftover tool: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgLiftOver
If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to contact the mailing list again.

Hi, there: It great to see UCSC genome browser has released dbSNP 131 for hg19. However, right now vast majority of the functional genomic tracks are still in hg18, e.g.. the ENCODE tracks. The genomics community are still mainly working on hg18. I'm just wondering if UCSC has a plan to release dbSNP 131 for hg18, as well?
