Oh.  No mystery here if wadsrc_extra/static/iwadinfo.txt does what it 
looks like (explicitly list all supported WADs and how to identify 
them).  That can't be copyrightable, at least, so that's good news.

Let's see if we can include the list without including any problematic 
files.

Kind regards,
