No. The logic to contact the author of non-free software to change the
license is perfectly fine. It was done several times successfully and
you will find example e-mails as CC to this list in the archive (in
March this year are several). Saying this I would like to recommend
explicitely to CC the mailing list if you contact the author.
I was just asking because your intend was not clear from the content of
the task file.
Kind regards
Andreas.
