My father and I each did the Geno 2.0 (not Next Generation) when it was new, back in the fall of 2012.
I had copied and downloaded all the information back then, and haven't logged in very often since. But for jollies, I logged in today. There were some small changes, in the display mostly, but I noticed the estimate for my nearest mtDNA branch, K1A, has refined the estimated age from 20,500 +/- 6,050 years ago in 2012, to 18,400 ± 1,730 years ago today. I'm actually K1a3, but doubt they will ever add that last branch step to my heat map and description.
Has anyone else seen changes or heard if results from the Next Generation, or any other source, are being used to improve reported results on the older Geno 2.0 test?
Another little change was that they no longer show your actual mt or Y haplogroup on the "Your Deep Ancestry" page (heat map & description page), where they used to put them on the tabs, which now just say "Your Maternal Line," or "Your Paternal Line." Wonder why that got removed? Did it cost too much to keep the old code to show it?
