bullet Topic: Italian Headstart
    Posted: 15 January 2007 at 7:20am
I ran across the Italian HeadStart FSI/DLI tapes/texts on the newsgroups. I am downloading them now, and, according to the photos of the tapes, etc, they appear to be original government tapes. If anyone is interested, I will PM gdfellows with the photos of the tapes and books, and see if he will allow them to be posted here.

Newsgroups... what can't you find there...

I sort of like this idea of scouring all over the net for FSI materials, and gathering them all here.  If they are real FSI in the public domain, I think this is great news!

Hi,
 
Spanish headstart (Panama) and Italian headstart are both available on emule. They are copies directly from the original "FSI/DLI" courses. They even have photos of the tapes and the scans are from the ring binders etc. The versions I have are fully complete.
 
Regards.

Andrew,
what is "emule" and how to get this material off it.
I tried www.emule.com but didn't get anything, just the main page.
Thanks

I have it all now. If someone has a ftp server for me to upload the files, my email is dsuroth@yahoo.com.

It is DLI, so it should be copyright free.

DLI's stuff should be free of copyright, however that still may not mean that we can distribute their material freely.

Look at the lower half of this thread:
 
 
The DLI stuff that we have seen so far has markings that the materials are meant only for the American military and cannot be distributed freely or resold. At the least, it's unclear whether a bunch of well-meaning volunteers can propagate DLI's materials without being accused of flouting other regulations.
 
I don't think that gdfellows wants to run the risk of posting DLI materials unless he has a guarantee from DLI that it will not penalize him for doing so. Copyright infrignement is not the only problem that gdfellows must avoid when considering new material for posting.
 
The last thing that we want is for the entire website to be shut down because gdfellows got tripped up for doing something here that even has a whiff of being offside. I'm sure that private resellers of FSI courses circle this site like sharks just itching to find anything here that's even the slightest bit questionable in order squash a so far valid substitute to these resellers who charge good money for burnt CDs and photocopied manuals.

Fascinating since sites like amazon can sell this stuff freely on the net, I don't think he should have any problems. I can clearly find this stuff for sale to persons not of the american military, namely us.
