Robert,

Thanks for posting.

Readers should note that there are not any new SNPs within R-M269 in
this paper. The authors use existing names for L11, L23, and S116.
The "new" M-series SNPs are the same as existing ones:
M412=L51
M529=L21


Three other SNPs were are phylogenetically equivalent to known SNPs
(though not exactly the same mutation):
M415 is equivalent to P25, but the authors remove this level of
phylogeny altogether - a nice development
M520 is equivalent to M269
M478 is equivalent to M73

Interestingly, the one new SNP in the paper is in haplogroup R2: M479
now defines R2, while the known M124 now defines R2a.
