I suppose it would mostly fall foul of #8: Discrimination against "fields of endeavor". The definition does not state as clearly as the Free Software Definition that the data can be used for any purpose.
i've just realised why it completely fails as any sort of free or open licence:
The term means "these conditions may change at any time without notice."
So it's a temporary permission license.
I wrote Digitaliseringsstyrelsen, or rather the civil servant in charge of open data and this license, and she has answered that this is really a bug in the license.
thank you very much for your initiative. Although it is about Open Data and not about Free Software, I personally think it is important for the Free Software movement to make a philosophical standing in these newer movements that sometimes forget about the basics. So, thank you very much for your pro-activity and I am happy you received such a positive answer.
Best, Erik
