There is no version of freesurfer being distributed by Anders Dale at UCSD.
Marty Sereno does has a version of freesurfer branched from version 0.9. His
includes a gui called csurf that can launch the retinotopy analyses (among
other things) for a single subject. In general, it is somewhat dated. For
example, it does not use mgh/mgz format, but rather a mixture of BRIK and
bfloat/bshort. The cortical surface reconstruction stream also does not have
many of the improvements made at MGH in the last several years (e.g. better
topo fixing, aseg).
I've never used it, but an advantage of the MGH freesurfer retinotopy analysis
stream is that it is documented, supported, and consistent with the latest
cortical reconstruction stream distributed with MGH freesurfer.
