Greg, I'm curious. In 1) can you see those messages now? I always send a standard message, so I know what it says, but I don't know who I am sending it to, and don't know of a way to capture a link now. 23andMe has stated that the FI:A utility will remain - so yes, you should still be able to compare B to C. Since some folks (I hope most of the genealogists) will opt for the Public Sharing (like we have at FTDNA and GEDmatch), we will actually be getting many more Matches at 23andMe.

I had a couple of questions about the changes that I hadn't seen addressed anywhere (my apologies if these are already answered somewhere): 1) "Soon, any anonymous matches with whom you are not sharing genomes will be unreachable." Will we still have access to the old messages sent to/from these anonymous matches? 2) Will we retain the ability to do IBD cross-comparisons between people we are sharing with? (i.e. if we are sharing with B and sharing with C, will we still be able to see segments shared between B and C?) This is a really nice feature of the current site (if somewhat cumbersome to use extensively) as it can help with figuring out whether a particular match is on the maternal or paternal side and figuring out who is included in a group with a mutually shared IBD segment originating from the same ancestor.

Hi Jim, You said: "Since some folks (I hope most of the genealogists) will opt for the Public Sharing (like we have at FTDNA and GEDmatch), we will actually be getting many more Matches at 23andMe." I sincerely hope that is the case. Very Respectfully, Shannon On Mon, Nov 9, 2015 at 10:33 AM, Jim Bartlett <jim4bartletts@verizon.net> wrote: > Greg, > > I'm curious.
