Just for clarification, is this more about language or 
jurisdiction (or both)?

Say, for example that there is a fictive FOSS license that would 
be written in English, yet have Malta as its jurisdiction …or, 
even more confusingly, be written in English and have the UK (or 
US) as its jurisdiction?


cheers,
