Yes. So far the team have been very positive about and responsive to 
comments, far more so IMHO than the US team.

IANAL, so forgive me if any of this is silly:

Are there any interesting differences in copyright law between the legal 
systems? Surely they implement the same treaties and acts of parliament. 

Would a clause stating "This license is covered by the laws of England and 
Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland as determined by the authors residency at 
time of licensing" do?

If the US states can have one license, I don't see why the UK states can't.
