Proof you've changed your mind and labeled it progress.

means One particular form of something that has been changed, updated, or adapted from an earlier or alternate form.

from From Latin 'versio' meaning 'a turning,' rooted in the verb 'vertere,' 'to turn.' The same root gives us 'convert,' 'reverse,' and 'vertigo' — all built on the idea of turning something a different way. A new version is, at bottom, just the old thing turned to face a new direction.
