This is something of a wishful thinking question.
Within the text of the CCPL, there are several references to "this License": <>
I ask because this interpretation would make the different versions of ShareAlike licenses with the same license elements mutually compatible. You could distribute a by-sa 1.0 work under the terms of the 2.5 license, or vice versa. That'd be a help for projects where license upgrades are uncomfortable (for example, wikis).
Anyways, I was optimistic about the idea until I read the last bullet point above; referring to "a later version of this License" seems to make it clear that "this License" means "this particular version".
