It looks very much /not/ BSD-3, so far as I can see.
The standard third clause, as per the link you quoted above is of the
form:
* Neither the name of the <organization> nor the
names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote
products
derived from this software without specific prior written
permission.
whereas the file you attached says
* The name of the contributors may be used to endorse or promote
products
derived from this software without specific prior written
permission.
That's different enough to make it a different license, imo. Obviously
my co-maintainers may disagree.
