Where do I find the revision information for small version changes? I see nothing in the Version Details that reflects changes between 5.8.8, 5.8.11, and 5.8.15.

Where are those notes?

See the second post on this thread on the BOINC forums for some very detailed information if you can interpret it.

This page does not give enough information.

This page does not give enough information.

Another set of pieces in the jigsaw can be found in the CVS checkin log, which has the added benefit that you're looking at live information, rather than a digested 'snapshot' at a particular point in time.

Again, it's very technical, and telegraphically terse, but that's what the developers like and need.

The one thing which I haven't found yet in a link between when the changes were logged, and the version number of BOINC they first appeared in - apparently, you can't assume that changes made on a particular date appear in all releases after that date.

I'm happy to see that FreeBSD is OS used for this page :)
