As long as scripting is not well defined I think you can begin with the grub2 architecture. I think knowing yourself the grub2 architecture can make things easier when elaborating documentation from a grub2 user point of view. I mean one of the first thing a grub2 documentation from a grub2 user point of view should have is an introduction on how does grub2 work overall. adrian15
