Or maybe the future conditional tense? It is not clear yet from what the GEDmatch developers have revealed, exactly how the "normal" GEDmatch features and the new Genesis features will be melded together. Quite a few new features have been tried out both in "normal" GEDmatch and in Genesis, as well as the Tier 1 utilities for each site. Some of these features would make good sense if they were propagated throughout the GEDmatch tool suite. For example, the drop-down selection list of your kits, now found on the "normal" GEDmatch One-to-Many comparison tool, would make perfect sense if added to many of the other tools. The traffic-lighting feature (green background shading for newly-added kits) on the One-to-Many report would make sense in several other reports, and would also be helpful as a marker for recently-added GEDCOM files and WikiTree links. Depending on how the programs are structured behind the scenes, it might be possible to implement these enhancements quickly by means of shared code. I suspect there are many other tweaks that would provide a more uniform "look and feel" throughout the site and at the same time improve usability and efficiency. GEDmatch has turned out to be my best option for genetic genealogy. I hope the developers will have the time and resources to continue its development.

This is because there are very important legacy GEDmatch functions that are not yet implemented in GEDmatch. The most significant legacy GEDmatch tool missing from Genesis is tag groups. Genesis does support Multiple Kit Analysis (although only as a Tier 1 tool and not free as it was in legacy GEDmatch), but Genesis still does not support creation of tag groups or use of tag groups already defined in legacy GEDmatch.

It does everythingGedmatch does and more, including accepting and processing raw data frommore companies and their newer platforms.Doris _______________________________________________Email preferences: http://bit.ly/rootswebprefUnsubscribe https://lists.rootsweb.com/postorius/lists/genealogy-dna@rootsweb.comPrivacy Statement: https://ancstry.me/2JWBOdY Terms and Conditions: https://ancstry.me/2HDBym9Rootsweb Blog: http://rootsweb.blogRootsWeb is funded and supported by Ancestry.com and our loyal RootsWeb community
