I've took a look and I have to say assultcube's license is a nightmere;
for me it is far from clear from me what they mean… However, I cannot
see a change on the licensing, so I guess the situation is unchanged
and that would hint that we are still talking about non-free, at least
for the data.
For example, what is source in their definition? I can only assume that
they mean the"sources.tar.gz" [1] on the release tab of their github
repo. If that is true, there quite a lots of difference when compared
to (what I guess is supposed to be in their terms) the game package
labeled "AssaultCube for Linux" [2]
[2] has many MiB more files than [1], so I guess [1] is not sufficient
to play, is it?
If I'm correct, the problem is that [2] is "no modification allowed",
"non commerical" and they are clear that there are bits in it that may
only distributed "unmodified" (in their definition) [3]. So this still
looks non-free for me.

together with the README.md on https://github.com/assaultcube/AC
PS: On [3] they mention ./packages/audio/misc/pickup_armour.ogg --
as licensed under "Creative Commons Sampling Plus 1.0", which is
unfortunatly a non-free license [4]. This alone makes it non-free.
