I just found out that TNT: Evilution will be selling there 32-level Doom II Wad
in Stores in January. They can't really sell it but they can sell it for a
"Distribution fee". Can I do the same?
Am I jealous? Hell yes!

Are you using DEU, WARM or DEUTEX for DOOM? WHY NOT??

So, I presume they have a licensing agreement with id now. Are they
compensating the authors of the editors and utilities they used?

Good point. People on the project can ONLY charge for a distribution fee.
The wad itself must be free. Therefore if anyone buys one copy of the wad,
they may _legally_ (according to the licensing agreement included in the
DOOM 2 installation) copy the wad and give it to whomever they choose,
upload it to an ftp site, and so on.
So...... How much is the "distribution fee" going to be?
