Sort of off-topic:
Who's saying that this WAD took the sound from Freedoom and not the other way around? Or the sounds in both that WAD and Freedoom were ripped (illegally) from the same source? Ok, since the plasma sound was submitted by Julian it's pretty sure to assume that it's his original work, but what about less "trustworthy" contributors? IIRC we had cases where people submittet ripped content simply because they didn't realize that that's a no-go.
The last problematic content was just 2 months ago, and that should have been quite an obvious offending resource, but it was in there for quite some time. Who knows how much other illegal content is in Freedoom at this very moment?
I think there should be some online system where users can rate each resource as "looks ok", "definitely good", "may be problematic", "bad" etc, plus a comment system to further explain each users decision (for example the original source with ripped content or something like "I've heard that sound in commercials X, Y and movie Z, probably from a sound library" etc).
Newly submitted resources should not be put into Freedoom directly, but rather run through that "quality control" system beforehand.
