How do I find old chocolatey package versions, for specification in the chocolatey package.config

I like to use chocolatey to configure personal additions to my dev workstations. For some packages I do not want the current version. A specific example is that I want ruby 1.9.3, while the current chocolatey. Other packaging systems, such as bundler, provide a simple way to enforce this.

I can find the current version of a package with chocolatey version putty

and put that in my package.config

<packages>
<package id="putty" version="0.63" />
</packages>

But, I don't know how to find available packages. Thus, the question: How do I find old chocolatey package versions, for specification in the chocolatey package.config?
