re tech articles can this cd be posted for all to use

[gazza]

i have recently bought a e30 cd from germany it appears to be pdf format of the original bmw workshop bulletins and covers about 50 after market fitments ie m tech 2 fitment including all the measurements where to drill/rivet etc it covers intensive wash wipe/heated seat/electric windows/mobile phone fitting/etc etc all the bits you need to know stage by stage and pic by pic it is in german with a english translation i wonder if we may suffer copyright issues as it is all bmw own bulletins and is not to be confused with the etk/epc ......any comments mods

I like the idea but is there any mention of copy write on either the case of the data itself?

[gazza]

I don't want to be done for breaking any copy write laws.

[gazza]

[nikos]

That doesn't make me any less likely to get done for breaking copywrite laws. Sorry but I'm not willing to take the risk.

[gazza]

no i take your point adam ...me neither ill have to think about this one

[tourer-dan]

These are on ebay at I think Ԛ£18 a pop. Run a load off and punt them out to willing zoners like myself for Ԛ£3. In fact, include a copy of the ETK too and make it Ԛ£4
Seriously though, I'd have a copy of both if you have them.

[Andrew]

[mrLEE30]

[Widge]

I'd like a copy too. Can't some one host it so we can all down load it? If we say all did Gazza a Ԛ£1 paypal payment then downloaded it it'd save on postage and CD's etc.

[kam-325i]

How big is it, as i have some "overlooked" space on a webserver i could use. ( i have a mate who runs an ISP, and my old dial-up account is, erm, lost)

[ivqii]

Me too please

[bigkev]

dont forget about me

[paulj]

unless there is a clear warning on the outside of the case or the last page of the file stating the goods are copy write protected then they an do nothing if you copy it thats the law if im not mistaken

if there is nothing there i would love a coppy mate

[dazleeds]

can i get a copy please

Daz

[tbmw]

i'd quite like a copy to please

[Widge]

kam-325i I don't understand this hosting thing, if Gazza sent you the files could you host them so we can all just click a link to download them?

[gazza]

the whole file is 330mb broken down into 100 adobe files the files are easy to send seperately the cd could well be a copy itself but if it is is very well done and presented give me a bit of time and ill sort something out.ill try and post a list of what is on the cd

[E30Adam]

Can we continue this via PM if anyone wants to contact Gaz about this please.

I don't want to be held liable for trades that could potentially be illegal discussed on the board. I can almost guarantee that data is copy write.

I'm sure you understand. Thanks
