downgrading with apt



Is there a way to force apt-get to install downgraded
packages? One or two packages are no problem... using dpkg
works just fine with them. But how could you downgrade
your system from testing to stable, for example? Is it
even possible? AFAIK, apt wont even download packages if
it thinks that they are older than what's registered. If I
could at least get it to do that, then I could have dpkg
install them over the newer versions.
