1) The Azores DNA project on Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) has a new admin! His name is Kalani Mondoy and he has his lines from the Azores to Hawaii. He's really good with autosomal DNA (Family Finder) and third party tools.
2) At the genealogy conference, the sale is on Family Finder, Y-DNA 37, Y-DNA 67, and the Full Mitochondrial Sequence. Even though the conference ends Sunday, they provided conference attendees with some coupon codes. If you are interested, email one of the admins (listed below). 3) Ancestry has discontinued the Y-DNA and mtDNA testing. Actually, they are going to purge their database of all those results by Friday, September 5, 2014. They spent big money buying out Relative Genetics and Sorenson and then they decide to get rid of it all. They are keeping their autosomal, or so they are stating. So if you have tested with Ancestry.com, I'd transfer the Y-DNA and the autosomal over to FTDNA (mtDNA doesn't transfer due to compatibility issues). After September 5th, you won't be able to see your Y-DNA or mtDNA results.
