Re: Answers @ Ubuntu (Tom Davies)

Tom,

I wrote much of the Grub2 community doc, much of it based on user
experience and experimentation. Unfortunately I'll be on vacation for
the next two weeks starting tomorrow. I know that is poor planning on my
part - or maybe not as I'm sure the questions on Grub2 will be
numerous. 

There are many users on the Ubuntu forums who have become knowledgeable
about Grub2 and I'm sure they will be very helpful in the next few
weeks. 

There haven't been many other contributors to this document and there
are several areas of Grub2 I know little or nothing about, such as RAID
and USB booting. I encourage and remind everyone that
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 is not supposed to be a single
author product and encourage others to expand and improve it.

If there are major areas of the community doc that need my attention I
will be glad to address them when I return. Otherwise, I'm off to the
Pacific beaches without a computer.
