   Use of this program for non-commercial purposes is permitted provided
that such use is acknowledged both in the software itself and in
accompanying documentation.

   Use of this program for commercial purposes is also permitted, but
only if, in addition to the acknowledgement required for
non-commercial users, written notification of such use is provided by
the commercial user to the authors prior to the fabrication and
distribution of the resulting software.


I would say this does not comply with point #1 of the DFSG.

In such case, just put "unstable" in the changelog file
and "non-free/whatever" as Section in the control file.
