The "No Charge" section could be made clearer. It is acceptable to charge for distribution so long as the charge is not some sort of license fee.
For example, say I want to operate a mail order geodata service, If I charge for the service of putting the data on a DVD and sending it to you in the post, that is OK so long as I don't try to prevent you from then putting it on your FTP server. This is treated in the "Access" section so this isn't a substantive change, only a suggestion that this could be made clearer. Perhaps moving the Access section to be adjacent to the No Charge section would be enough. Generally the interaction between "data" and "services" could probably stand to be more fleshed out -- this is related to the considerations that caused the GLPv3 and AGPL.
