Drafts are available from archive machines such as nnsf.nsf.net 
or ftp.nisc.sri.com in the internet-drafts directory.  See files:

	draft-ietf-x25mib-hdlcmib-00.txt
	draft-ietf-x25mib-x25packet-00.txt	
	draft-ietf-x25mib-ipox25mib-00.txt

Minutes of the last working group are available from the ietf
directory of the same machines.  The drafts are being changed
as described in the minutes and will be re-issued before the
next IETF meeting.  The X.25 MIB working group will be meeting
at that IETF meeting.  Discussions are taking place on the
x25mib mailing list.  You can send a message to

		x25mib-request@dg-rtp.dg.com 

if you wish to be added to the mailing list.

The SNMP Administrative Model provides a description of the proxy
mechanism.  Retrieve file:

	 draft-ietf-snmpsec-admin-01.txt

from the internet-drafts directory of the archive servers.
