actually, i disagree....see e.g., clause 7(b) (referring to the BY  
license for ease of reference) confirms that: "Notwithstanding the  
above, Licensor reserves the right to release the Work under  
different license terms..."

the license is non-exclusive, thus it is perfectly acceptable for a  
licensor to offer one version under a CC license and one under  
separate licensing terms.
