Thanks for this thread. I don't use Facebook or Twitter so without it I would be in the dark forever. As at 21.48 (BST) I am still getting mixed messages - mostly "authentication to the server failed", but also grey and occasionally green leaves.

Agree with other posters that a straightforward message on ancestry re FTM would have been useful.

Meantime, I'll keep an eye on this thread to find out what is going on.
