All the 1000 genomes information is freely available without passwords. There are 2 main sources for our raw and analysis data our ftp site which has 2 mirrored locations EBI|NCBI. These are accessible using both ftp and a udp protocol called ascp which is available freely from aspera. More information about these can be found on the data access page. Variant calls are also loaded into ensembl databases and can be browsed from browser.1000genomes.org and the mysql database can be both accessed via our Public mysql instance and downloaded from our ftp site

The cell lines are also freely available for others to use. There are more details on their reuse and how to get them from Coriell here.

When using the 1000 genomes data is it best to cite our most recent publication Nature 467, 1016-1073 (28th October 2010).

The 1000 genomes website does have an wiki but this is used for internal project discussions and membership is not provided to people outside the consortium.
