| Jakots showed that some ports where I'm listed as MAINTAINER have
| broken homepages. Here's the first step to fix that: games/doomdata/
| shareware doesn't only have a broken HOMEPAGE, its MASTER_SITES is
| also broken. As id doesn't seem to really have a page on (classic)
| doom anymore, I've removed HOMEPAGE. Thanks to Stuart who still had a
| copy of the original file, the broken MASTER_SITES can be fixed by
| hosting the distfile myself.
|
| Then, 10 years ago (!!!), Daniel Dickman pointed out that the link to
| a quote from John Carmack was *also* broken. Back then he suggested
| including the quote in the Makefile directly as a comment. Note that
| this quote is basically a mail John sent in 1999 (20 years ago!),
| explaining that the DOOM shareware wad is freely distributable. I
| promised Daniel to look into this when I had more time .. so with
| apologies to Daniel I'm finally coming around to that.
|
| I've tested the wad with games/prboom and can confirm it works fine.
|
| Can someone please review and, if OK, commit this?

| Thanks,
