-<p>This is a copyleft free license that is good for artistic and entertainment 
works, and educational works. It is one-way compatible with the GNU GPL version 
3.0, which means you may license your contributions to adaptations of CC BY-SA 
4.0 materials under the terms of the GNU GPL version 3.0, but you may not 
license your GNU GPL version 3.0 licensed works under the terms of CC BY-SA 
4.0. </p>

-       <p>Because Creative Commons lists only version 3.0 of the GNU GPL on 
its <a href="http://creativecommons.org/compatiblelicenses";>compatible 
licenses</a> list, it means that you can not license your adapted CC BY-SA 
works under the terms of "GNU GPL version 3, or (at your option) any later 
version." However, Section 14 of the GNU GPL version 3.0 allows licensors to 
specify a proxy to determine whether future versions of the GNU GPL can be 
used. Therefore, if someone adapts a CC BY-SA 4.0 work and incorporates it into 
a GNU GPL version 3.0 licensed project, <a 
href="https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/ShareAlike_compatibility:_GPLv3#Option_to_comply_with_later_versions";>they
 can specify Creative Commons as their proxy</a> (via <a 
href="http://creativecommons.org/compatiblelicenses";>http://creativecommons.org/compatiblelicenses</a>)
 so that if and when Creative Commons determines that a future version of the 
GNU GPL is a compatible license, the adapted and combined work could be used 
under that later version of the GNU GPL.</p>
