    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Currently, users have to compile from git in order to get the latest bug
fixes. The git server currently does not support HTTPS and commits do not
appear to be signed.

It would be beneficial if users could download a more recent signed tarball
than one from 2012. Please consider releasing new signed tarballs over on the
FTP: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub/

Thank you.
