Oh? Which bit - and  what's the consensus interpretation?

Not really - the change from "you must be the copyright owner" to "you
must have permission from the copyright owner to relicense their work"
doesn't really change anything, I don't think? Either way, existing
CC-BY-SA content is inadmissible without explicit authorisation from
its owner. (In other words, existing CC-BY-SA licensing is worthless,
since you need explicit permission anyway.)

But if I'm incorrect, please tell me.
