[Genome] Chain file for conversion of hg15 coordinates to hg18?

[Brooke Rhead]

Hello Yu-Hsuan,

We do not have plans to make a liftOver file for hg15 -> hg18.  However, 
you can instead do a "double-lift" to go from hg15 coordinates to hg18 
coordinates.  First lift from hg15 -> hg17 (May 2004), then lift from 
hg17 -> hg18 (March 2006).

I hope this solution works for you.  Please let us know if you have 
further questions.
