Мне на днях пришло письмо от ФТДНА вот такого содержания:
Hello L415, L596 Project members.
SNP Packs
FTDNA has not agreed with my proposals for new SNP Packs, at this time.
When they revisit the issue after the release of the current batch of new kits, I think I will be able to get the new packs for
1. New pack for L1252 -Ic2c1a1 (the old 12/22 Blue group)
2. New pack for by51 Ic2c1a2 (the old 13/23 green group which includes the Wallace Project kits)
3. New Pack for Z26391 Ic2c2 (the old 14/24 red group)
As I believe I can justify the minimum number of 30 kits that would be eligible for the pack by my data. (I have asked FTDNA for a clarification of what their qualifying criteria is!)
I will need to prepare a new submission for a kit that will Include
a. PF3885 Ic2c3 our newest group
b. L415 Ic2b and
c. a backbone test for those who do not have a basic L596 I2c1a1, I2c1a2 or I2c3 terminal SNP.
That will meet the 30 kit criteria.
Alternative measure would be to include PF3885 (I2c3) and L415 I2b in one or two of the 3 kits above.
We leave this for further discussions with FTDNA in the New Year.
