Hey Jody,
I am that volunteer :) Please see #113
<https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/issues/113>
The InDesign source file and the Adobe generated HTML would be indeed nice
to have, please bring it to github if possible.
It would help to port the guide to Open Document and to clean responsive
HTML, i think both are now needed.

Best,

Nick
