It would be nice to have an archive similar to archive.archlinux.org for old built packages, for use with tools such as downgrade.

I’m guessing that storage for this is not feasible for the project’s current infrastructure, so maybe a collaboration with archive.org or some other institution could be possible?

Having an archive would be nice indeed. I can come up with some rough size calculations, maybe I have the space. It won't be fast, but I think considering the intended usage it wont have to be.
