The phenomenological case for threefold maximal lepton mixing is strengthened by more detailed comparison with existing data. The atmospheric neutrino data are self-consistent and in good agreement with the threefold maximal mixing prediction R = 2/3 (chi-squared/dof = 4.3/5, CL = 51%). Including partially con- tained event data, the zenith angle dependence also points to threefold maximal mixing, ruling-out a range of mixing schemes, including that of Fritzsch and Xing. Accounting for `de facto' uncertainties in solar neutrino fluxes, the solar neutrino data (including HOMESTAKE) are shown to be consistent with threefold maximal mixing (chi-squared/dof = 5.1/3, CL = 16%), as is the upper limit from the LSND appearance experiment. Detailed pred- ictions for forthcoming long-base-line reactor and accelerator experiments are presented.

Original abstract
The phenomenological case for threefold maximal lepton mixing is strengthened by more detailed comparison with existing data. The atmospheric neutrino data are self-consistent and in good agreement with the threefold maximal mixing prediction R = 2/3 (chi-squared/dof = 4.3/5, CL = 51%). Including partially con- tained event data, the zenith angle dependence also points to threefold maximal mixing, ruling-out a range of mixing schemes, including that of Fritzsch and Xing. Accounting for `de facto' uncertainties in solar neutrino fluxes, the solar neutrino data (including HOMESTAKE) are shown to be consistent with threefold maximal mixing (chi-squared/dof = 5.1/3, CL = 16%), as is the upper limit from the LSND appearance experiment. Detailed pred- ictions for forthcoming long-base-line reactor and accelerator experiments are presented.
