Getting commit information for a specific project

Hello, ohloh community.

I would like to know if it's possible, through the ohloh API, to gather all the commit data that a specific project has already received, such as the commiter's name, email, date of submission, and structure it on a xml or csv data file.

Another thing that isn't very clear to me, would i need an API key to do this procedure?

Thanks in advance,

Thiago.

Personally, I think the easiest way to do this is to get (via the REST API) the details of each project, then check out the source code using the relevant SCM then use the SCM to get the commit data. Although Ohloh has this information, I would guess it throws away a lot of it (starting with the deltas) and you would get a richer set of data the long way round.
