Great thanks, its easy for the tagged releases then.

About the untagged 1.8.3 release, I see the latest change in 1.8 series was at r126039 on 20th August 2012. That change exists in the 1.8.3. tarball. I guess then that r126039 is the oldest that 1.8.3 could be. The next nightly tarball from webkit.org after r126039 was r126278 on 22nd August, which also contains the change i.e. it looks like the 1.8.3 tarball is somewhere between r126039 (20/8) and r126278 (22/8).
