Are you worried about copyrights? Yes, I have the Henle edition. Chopin's 
autograph is in a museum somewhere in Mallorca. It's not my intention to 
make an exact copy of the Henle Edition. LilyPond's automatic formatting 
mechanisms make different choices than the Henle engravers. And I think I 
will change some details, without affecting Chopin's original intentions. 
For example: I think Chopin's usage of rests vs. spaces in the two 
voices of the left hand (last systems of page 2) is very inconsistent. 
That could be improved I guess.
