   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.

No. The requeriment of written notification of commercial use is a
restriction not allowed by the DFSG.
