It's completely OK.

Somebody may object to this wording, because there is a "pine
interpretation" floating around which says that this only gives
permission to alter OR redistribute the sofware, but not both.
That interpretation is clearly rubbish in English, as the word
"to" does not appear between "and" and "redistribute".
