Perhaps a safer course would just to replace "or any later version" with "or later versions approved by <name of authority here>." That approval could even extend to another version of the license with a different named authority, should you care to pass the torch.

Note that the named authority need not be an individual. It could be a committee, such as the Frobnitz Steering Team or what-have-you.
