I haven't seen his analysis but similar approaches have fared ill before.
I actually had the chance to speak to Tom Gu"ldemann a few weeks ago and
he grouped Khoisan into 6 genetic unit: Hadza, Sandawe, South Khoisan,
Central Khoisan + Kwadi, Northern Khoisan and #Ho~a. The novelty is that
Kwadi was tentatively joined with Central Khoisan since Gu"ldemann
got access to the unpublished field notes.
