this FAQ should answer your question: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/
FAQ#What_is_a_derivative_work.3F
or you can enjoy reading the Legal Code and see the last para of
clause 3:
"The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether
now known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to
make such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the
rights in other media and formats. All rights not expressly granted
by Licensor are hereby reserved."
hope that answers your question.
