[cabfpub] Fwd: [pkix] Straw-poll on OCSP responses for non-revoked certificates.

When I looked at the RFC some time ago, it seemed that suspension and resumption were only allowed in delta CRLs. I don’t know of any CAs or browsers that support delta CRLs.

On the CRL you can suspend a certificate (the response is revoked) and turned it back to a good status and this is perfectly valid.

On 10/31/2012 10:32 PM, From Ben Wilson:
If a modification of RFC 2560 allows an extension to change the meaning of a “1” response to something else.  It was you who said “[it] might be good, …, either due to migration and update time or other reasons (out-of-sync cor whatever).”

Yes, that's why I think using "Unknown" is the correct response and not revoked for those. A revoked certificate can't be made valid ever after as long as it hasn't expired. And "Unknown" != "Good".

However once a certificate was marked as revoked, in my opinion a client doesn't have to check again ever.
