It sounds like very interesting project! Nice to hear that you are taking a stab at it. I have a few comments. First of all, I will ask a few native speakers to make a review of your work. Then I want to ask you to continue your work on docs/grub.texi. If you want to go deeper in this I would like to ask you to take a look at additional documents like docs/grub-dev.texi or Multiboot and Multiboot2 specifications (you can find both of them in multiboot and multiboot branches of the GRUB git repository). Of course I would prefer if you work on one document at a time. This should ease our cooperation. Last but not least, some lines in these documents are very long. I would like to have them wrapped at around 80th column to ease reading. If you could do that in separate patch that would be perfect. I think that this should be last step in doing docs cleanups. ...and if you could finish this work, at least for docs/grub.texi and docs/grub-dev.texi, before the 2.06 release that would be fantastic...
