I think there are cases where it makes sense to send any combination of
types 7, 12, and 13.  I do not think we should restrict which of those
certificate types can be mixed in one exchange.


>Can have one or more CRLs and/or OCSP content (RFC 4806) added to any of
the above, except for Raw RSA.
I thought  sending CRLs inline.was strongly discouraged, but I agree that
if an implementation sends them that it would be logical to include one or
more CRLs.

Are we planning on updating the list of certificate encoding types to
include type 14 (OSCP content)?  If yes then I do not see that in the
current bis draft.
