You mean you want the ANSI standards?  You can order them from ANSI.

    Yes, I mean the ANSI Standard X3T9.5. I have a copy, but its not up to 
    date and I think its not a time and cost effective way that everyone 
    how needs the standard goes in touche with ANSI.
    So once more who can help me.
    
    Thanks for helping

You MUST get it from ANSI.  The standards are covered by copyright.  Once
they have been published, you have to get them from the publisher.

Drafts are a different story.  But of the major FDDI standards, only SMT is
still a draft.
