Oops. Sorry John. I've been too busy for too long. Glad you reminded me.

Here is the link to John Chandler's analysis, which I just posted at World
Families Network:

http://worldfamilies.net/marker2.htm

For those who are not familiar with the World Families Network site, we try
to keep up with the useful and general information and to provide a link to
it. There are several pages of links. These pages are grouped under the
Heading "Technical Resources" in the left menu bar of our Home page.

http://www.worldfamilies.net/

If you have a resource that you think should be a general reference - let me
know and I'll add it. (and try my dangest not to take as long as I did with
this one)

regards, Terry

ps: the YHRD analysis mentioned by John was done by James Eliot and also has
a link at the Helpful Tools page.

Note to Terry Barton: I granted you permission to post the updated
rates on Worldfamilies when you requested same back in April. Feel
free to do so whenever the spirit moves. Meanwhile, these rates can
be found by searching the G-D-L archives, as others have already noted.

In some ways, this is much more interesting -- it's a compilation of
published reports. The main drawback is that the size and composition
of the test population varies a great deal from marker to marker.
