 With the recent release of PROJ 5.0.0 the proj-datumgrid package was given
 a big overhaul as well. This resulted in the creation of a set of grid
 distributions covering various geographic regions. The regional packages
 are not necessary as part of the PROJ installation but are usual for users
 in the specific regions. They are not included in the core proj-datumgrid
 package because some of the included grids are rather big. This is a
 request to add these packages to OSGeo4W.

 The packages can be downloaded here:
