As we reach our first anniversary as a management team, I am encouraged by our progress. We improved our consumer product ANCESTRYbyDNA™ and upgraded it from a 71-marker test to a 175-marker test. We intend to continue improving the product, its accuracy and its ability to scan a broader platform of genetic heritage. Our goal is to expand our current 4 categories of inherited genetic markers to 8 and possibly 16 categories.
Here's the 8 way classification (I missed this):

DNAWitness 2.5 determines a person's proportional ancestry from among four major population groups around the world: Native American, East Asian, Indo-European or sub-Saharan African heritage. It also can distinguish whether a person's European descent is primarily of continental European, Middle Eastern or Indo-Pakistani origin.
Someone's East Asian ancestry can be further specified as Northern, Central or Southeast Asian.
So, that gives:
Native American (1)
East Asian - subdivided into Northern (2), Central (3), Southeast Asian (4)
Indo-European - subdivided into continental European (5), Middle Eastern (6), Indo-Pakistani (7)
Sub-Saharan African (8)
