Any license that mandates a requirement to send all modifications to the
original authors is clearly non-free. Academic Free License does not do
that. The other licenses you quotes appear to do this.
In fact in one of the license this is a should and not a must, Karl
Berry (texlive maintainer) thinks it is right and I agree with him:
"All modified versions should be reported back to the author."
If I make private modifications in Free software and don't distribute
the software, I am under no obligation to distribute any changes to
anyone. Maybe this request can be presented outside the license and
that's what the DSFG FAQ suggests
