Yep, past two decades is what the article says.  It's a reaffirmation.

Terry,
This has been known for some time but the variation is slight 1 part in 7 
million if I recall correctly.

An interesting book on this & similar constants is:   The Constants of Nature 
by John Barrow

The electromagnetic force keeps electrons whizzing around a nucleus in every 
atom of the universe—without it, all matter would fly apart. Up until recently, 
it was believed to be an unchanging force throughout time and space. But over 
the last two decades, Professor Webb has noticed anomalies in the fine 
structure constant whereby electromagnetic force measured in one particular 
direction of the universe seems ever so slightly different.
