Just for the record: I don't consider your new menu inappropiate, I simply
had other priorities (like the release) and not enough time to follow the
discussion (as I expressed back then, I think it is bad timing).

Bean, if you put the changes that you think should be in GRUB into branches,
I think this would make it easier to import into experimental than a
monolithic all-in-one branch.
And if you want to create /people/bean/ for this purpose in our repository,
you're welcome to.

Hello,
I just interested to know if the menu system is already there in grub2. My box is debian. Hope in a week I'll get the modification during package up-gradation.

Bean,
In general, when people ask about GRUB 2 in this mailing list, they refer
to the official version of GNU GRUB.
If you stretch the definition, our experimental branch also falls in this
scope, and maybe even personal branches in our Bazaar repository in
Savannah.
Your project doesn't fall under any of these categories. In the future,
I'll appreciate if you're more careful not to make the wrong assumption.
Thanks
