-----Original Message----- Unfortunately, I don't have time to follow haplotypes other than I2a, and I don't know which SNPs are in I1, I2a, I2b1, etc. Could you please place in the subject line the haplotypes involved? That way I (and others like me in I2a) could delete those that don't say, "I2a"? Such would apply equally when the subject is I2a. [[ It is ironic this message from a frustrated hobbyist uses haplogroup names I2b1, I2a which are years out of date (and at the moment are EMPTY passed by haplogroups). That's the problem; those names change frequently. I don't know the solution; perhaps the compromise brought forth by some a while back --- like I2a-L147 or I2a-L623...... but even then there are too many branches of I2a...... now to satisfy everyone.

Obviously it will be difficult to do and police, so it is just a recommendation and reminder to create well-written, succinct subject lines. Other than that, I am not too worried about it. There's only so much folks can do. -- Aaron, List Administrator --- On Mon, 14/11/11, Kenneth Nordtvedt <knordtvedt@bresnan.net> wrote: > -----Original Message----- > > > Unfortunately, I don't have time to follow haplotypes other > than I2a, and I > don't know which SNPs are in I1, I2a, I2b1, etc. > > Could you please place in the subject line the haplotypes > involved?  That > way I (and others like me in I2a) could delete those that > don't say, "I2a"? > > Such would apply equally when the subject is I2a. > > > [[ It is ironic this message from a frustrated hobbyist > uses haplogroup > names I2b1, I2a which are years out of date (and at the > moment are EMPTY > passed by haplogroups).  That's the problem; those > names change frequently. > > I don't know the solution; perhaps the compromise brought > forth by some a > while back --- like I2a-L147 or I2a-L623...... but even > then there are too > many branches of I2a...... now to satisfy everyone.

There's a problem with this suggestion. Noone any longer knows what I2a and I2b1 mean. It makes more sense to post the SNP's in the subject line. Those following them know what they mean, or catch up with them in short order.
