As for Heretic, I played it a bit after having seen it for the first time at a friend's house back in '97. I found the game to be completely unremarkable (I was obsessed with "Dark Forces" at that time), and, IIRC, I have neither played nor even seen it since. Tell me, has there *ever* been a large interest in Heretic speed running, even back in the mid-nineties (by "large" I mean remotely comparable to the attention given e.g. Doom or Quake)? Looking at Heretic-N, it seems to be mostly a one-man show, with guest appearances by QWERTY. I'm guessing you started Heretic-N because there had been little or no recording activity for the game during its (at that time) 5-year lifespan.
As for the PrBoom/TAS issue, you seem to have a knack for making vague accusations -- you've done so several times now throughout various threads over the last two years. In fact, due to the circumstances, you're (unintentionally?) pointing the finger at a *very* small group of players, namely those "regular" players who started submitting runs in the PrBoom-plus era. They are only 5: Anima, Belial, cack_handed, DomRem, and Phil1984. There are also a handful of players who have submitted very few demos (one or two), such as Zodiac, and Aqfaq.
