archlinux cvs/svn

Is it possible to access the repos trough svn or cvs or get a specific package revision trough rsync? What's the commands, or am i not allowed since i'm a common user? (as in, not a dev, tu)

You should be able to find verion numbers here I think:

"abs <repo>/<package>" will get you the specific packages through rsync (for packages in [testing], [core] and [extra])

Thanks for this tip, the stupid proxy on my network does not allow rsync ><

You can do rsync over http, albeit slower. Not sure how (or if) you could get this working with the ABS, but it is possible.
