Thanks. I was asking yesterday already in another thread and nobody seemed to know the URL,

Maybe the URL is a bit hidden...

Created:
  Regresson bug: html'ized text renderings miss hotlinks
    https://trac.ietf.org/trac/ietfdb/ticket/3307

  Regression: tools->datatracker: no access to drafts XML from datatracker
