Actually, we already distributing them under the latest version of the
CC, as per the legal code:
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 iCommons license that
contains the same License Elements as this License (e.g.
Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 Japan).
note the bit about the later license.
