They were published to the Doctor Who website under the "stories" tab. Similar such stories include What I Did In My Christmas Holidays - By Sally Sparrow (What I Did on My Christmas Holidays by Sally Sparrow (short story)), Blue Moon (Blue Moon (short story)), The Advent of Fear (The Advent of Fear (short story)), etc.

No fan comic ever got that level of release.

As for the idea that they weren't commissioned, uh, are you seriously suggesting they weren't asked to do this? No money needs to have changed hands for this to be valid. But if they were asked, in their capacity as writers, to do this, they're not acting as fans.
