No. I don't think it will improve things very much. As I have already 
said (maybe twice), the cause is the structure rather than the text 
itself.

Marco, I'd like to note one thing. AFAIK, no programmer is really 
interested in web pages, especially about the design. Probably this is 
the nature of most programmers, since they are not technically 
interesting. But web pages are still good means of assisting 
development. They reduce the cost of development by directing people to 
right places and they help development itself by attracting more people 
to the project.

Here I don't claim that you should work on web pages, but I claim that 
*someone* must work on them seriously anyway, and I myself don't want 
to work on them very much, like you.

This might sound arrogant, but I really want someone but me for this 
kind of work, because it does not require much knowledge about GRUB and 
I do a lot of legwork for GRUB already.
