Does the FPCA automatically relicense older unlicensed contributions if a Later Default License is added?

(I already signed the FPCA, as I'm fine even if the answer to my question is "yes", but I would like to make sure I understand how this works.)

"Once a Later Default License has been designated, Your Unlicensed Contribution shall also be licensed to the Fedora Community under that Later Default License." I believe that means that if I make an Unlicensed Contribution to Fedora, and later a new license is designated as a Later Default License, that Unlicensed Contribution is now licensed under both the Current Default License and the Later Default License, despite having been made prior to the Later Default License being added. Is this the case?

I don't have any problem with the agreement whether this is or is not true, I just want to have a full understanding of what I've agreed to when contributing to Fedora.

Thanks for your help!
