Hi,
This is to announce that, following approval from RMS, the header in GRUB 2 that contains Multiboot declarations (multiboot.h) is now being distributed under the X11 license in latest Bazaar trunk of GNU GRUB.
With this change, we expect make it easier for OS kernel developers and implementors of Multiboot in general to adopt this specification.
Just to be crystal-clear about this, the NetBSD bootblocks and kernel contain a complete Multiboot implementation which has never had any GPL code in it.
