I would try going to source, ie the labs that are sequencing the specific
chromosomes of interest, and the NCBI has a sequencing progress page:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/seq/page.cgi?F=HsProgress.shtml&&ORG=Hs
and for more general stuff about sequencing:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/seq/page.cgi?F=HsHome.html&ORG=Hs
We have a list of the labs sequencing the chromosomes:
