IIUC these are all the same; they only differ as 1 and 3 contain the 
actual names of some projects that have used it, and in particular 1 
contains both versions. What is the problem?

Well, I would personally say no to having the grant itself there. 
Donations to the ASF should at least come through members IMHO and 
having the document there enforces it. I'll just add a note pointing to 
that location, unless others have different opinions.

I don't care as long as the people who need it know which version to 
use.   As far as it being members only, we don't have to accept a grant 
just because someone sends us one.   A note pointing to the right file 
in the foundation CVS would be a huge improvement.

On the website.

To the location of the grant file in the private CVS module for the ASF.

You snipped the part that talks about it. ;-P
You are not a member and do not have access to the CVS module where that 
file is, hence your confusion.

'There', 'that'...? Could you elaborate please?

Where can it be found, then?
