I recall talking about CRLs on the lists at one point and encouraging
their inclusion. I would have been happy to explain what they are and
why they're good to have (along with OCSP support...). I thought you
were included in that discussion.

My apologies for not responding to the request (I think I did see it,
though I can't recall for sure). I don't consider myself an SSL or
X.509 expert but I've got some experience with it and would be happy to
help as I can...

It's more the certs and X.509, ASN1, etc, that's black magic, imv. :)
