We already know that L1439 is upstream of CTS6364, so while finding out a Z63 is L1439+ will provide needed support for that position, it still leaves us not knowing whether L1439 is upstream or equivalent to DF29. Currently, the only way I know of to find that out is to test a Z131. I agree that, in general, this is no time to be doing a la carte SNP testing, and those taking the BigY shouldn't be doing any, at all. But as far as I know, none of the Z131's is taking the BigY, so we need one to take L1439 a la carte. Right now, we have a Z63, a Z131, and an I2 testing L1439 (Thank you all!). Until we have those results, I don't see the need for anyone else to test L1439. Diana
