But it's useful to be able to go back through the charter history and
see the dates that the milestones and chairs were changed.

I think that once people get used to how the version numbering works,
this won't be so much of a problem as it is now.  We might also
consider including the charter version numbers, and/or otherwise
highlight changes to the charter text (maybe make the dates "bold"
when they coincide with a charter text/version change).
