Comparing Raw Data from 5 DNA Testing Companies - Blog comment by lkessler - 2 Sep 2018

Winz: Yes, AA means father is A and mother is A at that position. I can’t answer your 2nd question yet, because I don’t currently know much about what the whole genome results will provide.

I’m afraid you’ll probably have to wait a bit longer than 10 weeks. Last week I received some of my results for the WGS from DanteLabs ordered March 3rd of this year.

Advancing the GEDCOM Standard - Blog comment by waynekurtz - 31 Aug 2018

Louis, a few years back I remember reading about an effort to create an XML based genealogy data tagging standard (I think its called a schema, but not sure). Have you ever heard of this? Any idea what happened to it?

Behold’s Genetic Relationship Notation (BGRN) – Revised - Blog comment by justincyork - 13 Aug 2018

I like it. It's similar to the system fs-traversal uses to construct relationship paths. https://github.com/genealogysystems/fs-traversal
