Yes, but on the Downloads page it doesn't say that the prebuilt packages
are for 1.1.7. In fact, you get the feeling that they must be for 1.0.6,
because that's the stable version! So you don't even bother looking
there. Instead you straightly follow the link to the 1.1.7 Release
Notes, which is on top of the Downloads page, to only find there a
source tarball and no indication of prebuilt 1.1.7 packages availability.

Yes, but not with svn+ssh scheme. In other words, this won't work
without password (taken directly from the readme):
        svn co svn+ssh://USER@mono-cvs.ximian.com/source/trunk/mono
