I updated the bugzilla version selections.  Since there is no more CVS (i.e. replaced by SVN), I'm not sure whether the first part of your request is still required.  If so, please re-open the bug and I'll take a further look.

SVN is a great news! I don't need CVS tags anymore. But I didn't know something about it. And the page http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/downloads.html contains information only about CVS, nothing about SVN. May be we need update the site with information about SVN access.

By the way, in svn the latest tag is 1.1.18:
http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libxslt/tags/LIBXSLT_1_1_18/
but on the http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/news.html I see 1.1.19. Where is it in the repo?
So, the same problem in svn... ;)

After each release you have to create a tag, saying something like
"svn cp http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libxslt/trunk http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libxslt/tags/<version_label>"
Overwise it's quite difficult to find which revision is released version.

We're now in git even and it needs tags too. Last releases have them. Thus closing.
