To Whome It May Concern :) Please send out the download instructions below to your collaborator to get all the data files as well as the MD5 checksum file. The total download size stands at 31G after file compression (164G for raw data). To ensure data integrity during transfer, please ask him/her to run the MD5 checksums on his/her side and compare them with those we provided. Any mismatch should be investigate and corrected. ---------------- Beginning of download instructions -------------------- Depending on the computer OS you are using, here are the steps to follow.
