* web information is too little

I think the current information available from the GRUB homepage is too 
little. These should be included:

* What is GRUB legacy, and why we call it "legacy" (because it should 
abandoned as soon as possible). The policy in GRUB legacy, such as "we 
don't extend it any more, only bugfixes.

* What is GRUB 2 meant to be. It has many goals as written in the PUPA 
homepage.

* How to get GRUB 2 from the CVS (using the module grub2).

I hope Michael will work on this kind of task, but if he has no time, I 
hope other people will help.

I added a good amount of information on GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2 to the 
website just now.  I'll add more later this week, if not sooner.

Thank you, Michael. I've modified the section Download myself, because I 
wanted to make it richer.

But I still do not like the current page very much. It contains 
information on both GRUB 2 and GRUB Legacy, and it may lead to 
misreading.

Personally, I prefer this kind of layout:

http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/

This is too much for us, though.
