1.2.5 is roughly the same as 8.2

The problem is that the RHDS releases contain many bug fixes and, in 
some cases, small features backported from later versions of 389.  So, 
for example, 8.2 will contain some small features and many bug fixes 
backported from 1.2.6-1.2.9.  I suppose the best place to look would be 
the %changelog for redhat-ds-base.spec.  We used to keep the RHDS source 
tree more or less separate from the 389 source tree, but beginning with 
RHEL 6, since 389-ds-base is now in the core OS, the 389-ds-base in RHEL 
is based on the external source tarball, so it is easier to see what 
version RHEL is based on and what patches went into it.
