This is clearly a DFSG-free software licence (and a very permissive one). Note that another way to tell that the software is probably DFSG-free is to: (a) Note the changelog entry says "Switched to zlib license." (b) zlib1g is a package in Debian main licensed under the zlib licence (that's how the licence got its name). The zlib library is popular free software! Good luck, Adam
