Does anyone know what's the deal with the newer raw data file released? I heard that for genetic modelling, the raw data file offered by AncestryDNA is the gold standard due to its high coverage and SNP overlap, but now I'm hearing that they shrunk the raw file consideredably compared to previous years with much fewer SNPs compared to before. Does anyone have a breakdown on the SNP comparison between old and new as well as the SNP overlap for Eurogene/G25?

Does anyone know how the newer raw files post-March of this year differs from older versions? Does it include more SNPs than before or the same, and can it be used to obtain G25 coordinates?

The website claims: "The new panel will focus coverage on about 280 million base pairs of the human genome, which will include the approximately 700,000 SNPs previously reported from the GSA microarray chip." Does this mean that they will cover 700,000 or will it be more(undisclosed amount) but at least include 700,000?
