When a product that was previously Open Source changes to a non-open license, it's not uncommon for someone to pick up the last Open Source version and fork it, and release that for others to use and collaborate on. That's always going to be a good thing; that means people who care about Open Source licensing continue to have a version to use and collaborate on.
