* configure.ac: Bump version to 0.6.96.
* docs/multiboot.texi: Include `version.texi' instead of hardcoding
version number.
2009-12-24 Robert Millan <rmh.grub@aybabtu.com>
* docs/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove `menu.lst'.
2009-12-24 Robert Millan <rmh.grub@aybabtu.com>
* autogen.sh: Workaround Automake requirement for NEWS and README.
We really should have them, but in practice we never had. This
ought not be considered a regression.
2009-12-24 Robert Millan <rmh.grub@aybabtu.com>
* BUGS: Remove.
* INSTALL: Remove.
* NEWS: Remove.
* README: Remove.
* autogen.sh: Adjust automake flags to add generic files such
as `INSTALL', `depcomp', `install-sh' and `missing'.

* docs/multiboot.texi: Bump version number to 0.6.96.
2009-12-24 Robert Millan <rmh.grub@aybabtu.com>
* docs/multiboot.texi: Misc editorial changes:
Avoid using `commercial' as a synonym for `non-free'
(see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Commercial).
Make a clear distinction between kernels and Operating Systems
(Linux is a kernel, FreeBSD and NetBSD are Operating Systems, Mach
is a microkernel, VSTa is something in-between).
Use 64-bit types to describe 64-bit datum (instead of splitting in
two 32-bit fields). Little endianess assumption applies (as per
Terminology section).
Update status of GNU GRUB relative to version 2.
2009-12-24 Robert Millan <rmh.grub@aybabtu.com>
* docs/multiboot.h: Replace with include/multiboot.h from GRUB 2 Bazaar

2004-04-22 Jeroen Dekkers <jeroen@dekkers.cx>
* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Add "gnu".
