For versioning, I prefer the much shorter 'GPLv2' (GPL version 2 only)
and 'GPLv2+' (GPL version 2 or later).
I'm not opposed to that.
I think the tagging per file in comments is definitely overkill.
Again, most packages won't need this, its only in the case of packages
with multiple files that are under different licenses. We're talking
less than 1% of packages in Fedora. (Note that documentation licensing
doesn't trigger this, nor would differing content licensing in the same
package).
