grub2win has passed automated validation. It may have or may still fail other checks like testing (verification).
NOTE: No required changes that the validator checks have been flagged! It is appreciated if you fix other items, but only Requirements will hold up a package version from approval. A human review could still turn up issues a computer may not easily find.
Guidelines
Guidelines are strong suggestions that improve the quality of a package version. These are considered something to fix for next time to increase the quality of the package. Over time Guidelines can become Requirements. A package version can be approved without addressing Guideline comments but will reduce the quality of the package.
Notes
Notes typically flag things for both you and the reviewer to go over. Sometimes this is the use of things that may or may not be necessary given the constraints of what you are trying to do and/or are harder for automation to flag for other reasons. Items found in Notes might be Requirements depending on the context. A package version can be approved without addressing Note comments.

grub2win has passed automated testing.
This is not the only check that is performed so check the package page to ensure a 'Ready' status.
Please visit https://gist.github.com/98a2a3edb8a642bf0a23159d747edff1 for details.
This is an FYI only. There is no action you need to take.

Unfortunately, it looks like the software have already been updated (or at least the archive have).
Could you please update the package with the new checksum, or push out a new version (whatever would be most appropriate).
BTW, considering the small size of the software, and that it's licensed under GPLv3 I suggest you looking into embedding the archive inside the package.
Thanks,
Kim.
