ISSUE-201

Status recording for revocation checks?

State:
CLOSED
Product:
wsc-xit

Current text:

When certificate status checks are attempted, but fail due to network errors or related error conditions, the following applies:

1. If a certificate check was successfully performed before, or if an Augmented Assurance Certificate is used, then error signalling of level danger (6.4.4 Danger Messages) MUST be used.
2. Otherwise, error signalling of level warning (6.4.3 Warning/Caution Messages ) SHOULD be used.

We do not currently understand how that interacts with the text about keeping state to deal with previously-validated-cert showing sites.

(Sorry for this not being a good issue, but we're in the middle of a discussion.)
