What is the good way to change the license of an opensource project?

I guess it depends of the agreements of the contributors
- Do i need 100% approval?
- What if one contributor disagree or one contributor didn't answer?
What about versions?
- If change happens at version X, does it apply for previous versions?
Where should it be mentioned? On homepage at least. Also in the code?

@PhilippeOmbredanne I would be inclined to agree, but it should be made known that the OP closed his own question as a duplicate, because the Community user is on the list of those who voted to close.
