That's quite interesting. If there's a requirement that you have to contact the author before using it commercially I guess that would sadly make it non-free. In my opinion being copyright-free and having that requirement is a contradiction, but if I want to play safe, I guess I'll have to consider it non-free unless it is clarified. I wonder if it's a requirement or just a "it would be nice if you contacted me, but it is not needed" kind of note, but from your words it seems to be the former.
