To be sure you did not read over it, the "without fee" requirement in
the text
above is not a problem?
Of course, IANAL, but I read it as they are giving anyone those rights
without asking a fee in return. That is, the "without fee" not being
part of the restrictions but of the granted rights.
I agree, they clearly state its Public Domain and thats a well defined
legal term.
