For now you should treat Arch (tla) as GPL v2 only.  The FSF is in the
process of getting copyright assignment from a copyright holder of some code
in Arch; once that is complete I have the permissions of all the copyright
holders and then the next release will switch to GPL v3 or later.

Thank you for getting tla updated in Fedora.
