I had Till Jäger from the ifrOSS have a short look-over,
which he kindly made for free (though they normally focus
on copyleft licences). Probably better than nothing.

Might be a suggestion. If the prospective author has _some_
resources, maybe the ifrOSS would be happy to negotiate;
asking them probably isn’t bad.

On the other hand, I don’t know which legislations they
can operate in…
