Status of CC by-SA v2.5

[Tim Haynes <thaynes@openlinksw.com>]

Hi,

I hope this is the most appropriate place for this question; if not, my apologies.

I would like to check whether I can include in my project a _javascript_ source file, licensed under CC by-SA v2.5.

The DFSGLicenses page[0] permits v3.0 and v4.0, but excludes v1.0 of this licence.

The licence itself[1] has a clause 4b stating I "...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, ...".

Can I claim to be using it under v3.0 and include it in a Debian package without conflict?

Thanks & best regards,
