I think the trick might be to say "since revision 55123". IMHO, using the revision numbers is better than saying "since version 1.2.5", since "version" 1.2.5 hasn't actually happened yet.
Of course, many users think in version numbers rather than revision numbers, so there are benefits for having both. >From my own experience with Subversion, we will soon see people saying things like >"such-and-such a ticket was resolved in revision 59063", rather than citing a nightly >build date. -Ted.
