Ken, Are there some subclades of Haplogroup I where Chromo2 is especially useful? In particular do you think there is much more to be learned from more I-L161 Chromo2 results? It looks good so far. I know that we have no Chromo2 results at all for I-M26, I-L233 etc so hard to say anything about these clades yet. Bernie

There has not been a chromo2 result which has been unproductive so far, and I mean they've been really productive. That's the good news. The bad news is that hardly anyone is bringing their results forward to be intercompared with others, and that's the only way to position the many ysnps on the tree. I have In haplogroup I only 7 sets of Chromo2 raw data plus two renditions of a customer's positives. That total has hardly changed in several weeks. The two who have shared just their renditions seem to be saying that even they have not received their raw data yet. If the people at BritainsDNA don't figure out a way to get more of the hundreds of folks who have results for these Chromo2 tests to share them for intercomparisons, I think in a month or so everyone will be turning their attention to BigY and will forget about Chromo2.
