> No it's not. The Mosaic license it's not even there. And it forbids commercial

> 
>  * Any Licensee wishing to make commercial use of the Software should       *
>  * contact the UI, c/o NCSA, to negotiate an appropriate license for such   *
>  * commercial use.  Commercial use includes (1) integration of all or       *
>  * part of the source code into a product for sale or license by or on      *
>  * behalf of Licensee to third parties, or (2) distribution of the binary   *
>  * code or source code to third parties that need it to utilize a           *
>  * commercial product sold or licensed by or on behalf of Licensee.         *

In this case the license tag you used it's invalid.

NCSA stands for "NCSA/University of Illinois Open Source License":
