Hi David and All, And so could this be a good time for all of us to stand up, to scream and shout and to DEMAND that a "universal" genetic code become employed? That is, a genetic terminology, language or code of test results which could be equally applicable between all such genetic testing agencies? That actually could be of good use to the testing companies as perhaps their clients could then have fewer doubts or questions. Yeah, this is only the M222 board and we are only the little guys, but that kind of proposal could begin here.

Doug, I don't know if you've seen that DF49xM222 project admins submitted some new SNPs to FTDNA that are now being offered by them a la carte. The irony is that the project admins didn't even submit them to ISOGG's Ybrowse yet and went ahead with their "ZP" series labeling. (I think one of the guys is named Peter but I'm not sure where the "P" comes from.) Anyway, FTDNA adopted those labels. The irony is a few months ago people thought FTDNA would confuse things more by creating a new labeling system for SNPs. Instead, they got out of the labeling business and are using whatever is out there include the hobbyist "DF", "Z" labeling, FGC's "FGC" labeling and even BISDNA's "S" labeling. Ultimately they have become most supportive of interoperability and are the most agnostic. I'm not saying FTDNA doesn't have warts though. They clearly do. Believe me, I feel the pain as an admin.
