1) - The person has been selected to be used in the pre-launch Family Finder.  That person was copied when I sent the notice to FTDNA.    2) - To learn more about Family Finder (FF) go to your "myFTDNA" website.  There is a LARGE banner you can click on to get additional information. There is a place on the new page to send FTDNA your e-mail address so you'll be notified when they go live. Also try this link: http://www.familytreedna.com/faq/answers/17.aspx   3)  Somewhere, and I don't remember where they said when you get a chance to order FF for an existing kit they'll check to see if they have enough DNA to run the test.  If they do they'll use it.  If not they'll send a new kit.  If you have paid for FF and they find they don't have enough DNA and if the person who provided the original sample is no longer alive I am sure they'll refund your money.  You can always elect to pay by invoice.  They don't send a request to the lab until they have the sample and the payment.  You really don't owe them anything until the request is sent to the lab.   4)  Everyone will be able to order FF when they go live, maybe mid-March.   I hope this answers most questions.  If you still have one please let me know.
