Bug Description
On the footer of all Launchpad pages, you see next to the copyright notice, the words 'build 4412' (as of today). This is confusing and a bit misleading in the face of cherrypicks though, because Launchpad isn't exactly running r4412. It would be better to describe the release version number, e.g. 'version 1.1.6'.
Rinchen points out in irc that the build number was used to troubleshoot mismatched appservers at one point, but even there, in the face of cherrypicks, the footer text is misleading.

Oh, it might be cool if the 'version 1.1.6' were a hyperlink to a What's New help page.
