Question Regarding Libri "Re-Mixes"

I am not in the business of re-mixes or reprints when it comes to the work of Uncle Al. In fact, I am certainly focused these days on tools that aid the serious ceremonial magician in documenting and publishing their own works.

However, in the course of research into TeX and LaTeX for the typesetting of occult works I ran into a "re-mix" titled "Invoke Often" by Alessia Helsdottir with whom I am not familiar. At first glance it seems like a passionate attempt to organize Class D documents into a convenient publication useful for both students and seasoned magicians. I have not had the opportunity to critically review the work, however. Having done this myself for personal use only using Scans from the Equinox, I certainly understand the intent. Seeing the document for sale on Amazon and Lulu, for me at least, does pose a problem, as does the licensing of it as Creative Commons.

My question to the forum is two-fold. 1) Is anyone familiar with this document and has it been of use? 2) From the GitHub link the creator invites others to aid in correcting the content as found wanting. For me, I would see this as an opportunity only to apply Libri templates I have been experimenting with to bring the document into a shape befitting the work and its purpose.

My gut says to let it be and not take on any ownership of new versions (especially as doing so would require thorough examination of the content and any non-Crowley references within it, as well as potentially opening the door for additional documents similar in scope). I would love to hear thoughts from folks here.
