You can do whatever you want, as long as the text is PD and you didn't copy the work of another editor. For instance you take the original manuscripts of Mark Twain and retype them into the ePub. You can distribute it freely, on whatever means do you like.
I am well aware of that... as I am well aware of the fact that my ebook collection is NOT public domain (most peoples' aren't) -- I guess you can make the argument I should've specified, but I *thought* it was obvious.
