I found <http://ruslug.rutgers.edu/~mcgrof/grub-images/> just
now. That's great. I thank you for your effort. It could have been
still better, if you sent a notice to bug-grub, though.

BTW, I have a few requests about that page to you.

First, the description about the FSF's legal position is not very
correct, at least in its nuance. We strongly recommend that
contributors assign or disclaim their copyrights, but that is _not_ a
requirement. If they don't want to do that, we can accept them.

So please don't think any copyright issue is concerned with
splashimage support. They are independent.

Second, you have used three terms for GNU GRUB rather
randomly.

``GRUB'' is okay, as far as it is (obviously) a short form of ``GNU
GRUB''.

``grub'' is not bad, but I think it is less readable, as it looks like
an ordinary English word. It is appropriate if and only if you refer
to the executable.

``Grub'' is wrong. We never use the spelling. Please stop using it, if
possible.

Finally, I'd add a link to your page into the official web site. Is
the URL stable enough?

Thanks,
Okuji
