Comment (by desruisseaux):

 Regarding [http://www.epsg.org/TermsOfUse.aspx EPSG terms of use] (in
 their 2016 version), one way to understand them may be to see them as
 similar to the BY-NC-ND type of
 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons_license#Types_of_licenses
 Creative Commons license] with some relaxations. I got from personal
 communication that IOGP considered the use of CC license before to decide
 to use their own.

 Regarding an earlier comment in this thread, I think that the right to
 redistribute (under various conditions) should not be confused with a
 right to relisense.
