Could somebody confirm the reality (as opposed to what the website
mentions) of this ?

The content in the website is free to access :- both the videos and the
course material. In the case of restricted internet access, one can pay the
respective amounts for obtaining DVD's of the videos of the courses through
post.
Sorry for not being clear, what I meant to inquire whether somebody could
confirm if the DVDs were /really/ available at this point in time ? I tend to be
a bit cynical/skeptical about any GoI efforts to 'disseminate education' -- The
intent usually is really good, but the implementations fail. So, I won't be
surprised to learn that the DVDs are not really ready.
Also, I wonder what are the redistribution terms, for instance, if I receive a
DVD can I make copies and redistribute them ? Anyways, now that I am
sufficiently curious, I'll send out a mail to the people involved and ask them
about the licensing terms. I'll update the list about this.
cheers,
- steve
