Yep, this. ;)

Yes, please. I have always considered this file as part of the official
set. Apparently, I have first patched my copy of Q2 to 3.15 and then
later to 3.20 (though I am not really sure if this is really 3.20 that I
have, after all).

Yes, maybe, although I have never before heard of them. But, if they are
on idsoftware mirrors, they are probably just as official as the
pak3.pak file and should be considered a worthy addition. That is, they
are not just random stuff downloaded from the internet.
