Hi Jake,

The 15-way is the only alignment that we produced that included the 12 flies, 
so I believe the 15-way was used -- perhaps the non-fly lines were stripped 
from the MAF file (easy to do with grep -v) or just ignored.  But Pouya et al. 
at Broad should be able to tell you more definitively.
