While the project continued for a few years past May 2013, they froze their official variant calls at that point.

If you're performing an analysis that just requires subpopulation minor allele frequencies and/or similar summary statistics, gnomAD is probably more useful now. But yes, if you're looking for a bunch of uniformly-quality-controlled public whole genomes, the best resource is almost 5 years old...
