Hi Aaron,

there is currently no link displayed to view the history, but you can
access by using the "/dataset/history" route:

Dataset: http://demo.ckan.org/dataset/adriplan-portal
History: http://demo.ckan.org/dataset/history/adriplan-portal
Comparison of two revisions:
http://demo.ckan.org/revision/diff/adriplan-portal?diff_entity=package&oldid=c35ecd29-35ed-4ae4-a91c-43eae94c3741&diff=65d930b9-e8a9-4b87-8012-88818b51a196
