Therefore, your active participation and feedback during the Beta test phase, while not required, will be much appreciated.

While the upgrade process should be simple, we have established an FAQ section dedicated to guiding you through the project transfer process and using GAP 2.0: http://www.familytreedna.com/faq/answers/default.aspx?faqid=20 Thank you for your participation and your work as a project administrator, *Beta means that the software is still being tested and finalized.  As an “Open Beta" tester of GAP 2.0, you will start using this software early and participate in the software development by providing your feedback and recommendations. © All Contents Copyright 2001-2010 Genealogy by Genetics, Ltd.   ________________________________ From: Diana Gale Matthiesen <DianaGM@dgmweb.net> To: y-dna-projects@rootsweb.com Sent: Sat, September 4, 2010 11:29:07 AM Subject: Re: [Y-DNA-projects] feedback on new GAP 2.0 beta Well, we can always give feedback, but somewhere I got the idea (can't find the email, maybe I'm dreaming) that we had a couple of weeks to give feedback on the new GAP, then they were going to launch, with no going back to the old one.  If I'm wrong on this, someone please correct me.

Thank you, Larry. Yes, that's the email I received, but cannot find. I see it's the "Dashboard" (introduced last year) that is being retired. I wonder if we'll have the option, this time, to stick with the "Classic" GAP?
