I missed this thread until I stumbled on a bug. 4b applies to derivative works only. Underscores mine. / | You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly | digitally perform a ____Derivative Work____ only under the terms of this | License, a later version of this License with the same License Elements | as this License, or a Creative Commons Commons license that contains | the same License Elements as this License (e.g. Attribution-ShareAlike | 2.0 Japan). \ .. (etc) ... As such, no. This has resulted in a few REJECTs. Folks who have uploaded 2.0 as 3.0, don't keep doing it. If it made it through NEW for some crazy reason, please file a serious bug on your package and CC the ftpteam. Have a nice weekend, Paul -- .''`.
