+ <modulesummary>API for a SSL/TLS CRL (Certificate Revocation List) cache.</modulesummary>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ When SSL/TLS performs certificate path validation according to
+ <url href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5280.txt">RFC 5280 </url>
+ it should also perform CRL validation checks. To enable the CRL
+ checks the application needs access to CRLs. A database of CRLs
+ can be set up in many different ways. This module provides the
+ behavior of the API needed to integrate an arbitrary CRL cache
+ with the erlang ssl application. It is also used by the
+ application itself to provide a simple default implementation of
+ a CRL cache.
