I was watching them for a while to see if was something I wanted to try
and after the project went several months with no apparent commits, I
figured this was something I probably didn't want to play with.

Depending on grub2 to have active development seems a bit risky to me.



But, GRUB 2 development doesn't look inactive. There is a lot of discussion going on in the grub-devel mailing list [1], and their revision log in their GIT mirror (primary development is in SVN) has lots of commits listed in at least the last year for grub2 trunk[2].
