CC-SA says:
"You may not offer or impose any terms on the Work that restrict the
terms of this License or the ability of the recipient of the Work to
exercise the rights granted to that recipient under the terms of the
License."
If anyone has uploaded CC-SA licensed textures or other materials to
Second Life, they are now in violation of that license because of the
new third party viewer policy section 2b which forbids reproduction of
materials that were uploaded by someone else.
As well, any full perm materials uploaded to Second Life under a GPL
license cannot fulfill their requirements either since there have been
additional restrictions placed on the distribution.
