I can't speak for Patrick, but the following two paragrahs on the homepage
might help:

-----------------------------------------------------

Why freeware ? 
I originally developed this program for my personal use, because I like to
adapt my tools to my needs. In my opinion the functionality of Sky Charts might
be of interest to amateur astronomers or students. Therefore I decided to
distribute it as freeware. I feel that you should rather invest your money in
buying a good eyepiece than to waste it on software! 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terms and conditions 
"Sky charts" is a  freeware. You can freely install and use an unlimited number
of copies for your personal usage or redistribute it on any support under the
restriction that you must not modify it and that you have to include all the
documentation files.  
Any commercial use is however prohibited. 

For the conditions and citations of the single catalogs, please refer to the
original descriptions in the files ".TXT" in the  subdirectory "CAT\".

---------------------------------------
  
My personal guess is that since he's making it freely available to amateurs,
putting charts on a club website shouldn't be a problem, as long as it's not
for commercial use.
