As copyright owners they can change the license going forward, but that doesn't retroactively change the license for previously released versions.
eg. Vert.x versionX+1 could be modified to have a new license that doesn't allow forks and then you wouldn't be able to fork if you included any of the new stuff they added in that version, but Verx.x versionX would remain released under the previous license terms.
