I think Peter's point is that most folks consider revocationTime in OCSP
equivalent to revocationDate in CRL.

This interpretation is not ill-formed given that OCSP has no text describing
what revocationTime means in OCSP context.

 

And if you go by this interpretation, according to 5280, revocationDate
cannot precede thisUpdate of an earlier CRL if the revocation for the
certificate is being reported the first time.

 

Not saying that OCSP has to follow these rules, but given that it is
deviating from CRLs on the meaning of revocationTime and revocationReason, a
separated section describing these fields should be added.

It means the time value in thisUpdate field is a time when CA database
was locked in the process of creating CRL/OCSP response. CRL contains
only revocations with time which were before time value of thisUpdate
field. Any revocatins registered while database was locked must not be
included and are included after next lock of CA database when a new
CRL will be generated.

 

I am not sure I follow you. Why does the OCSP responder have to care about
when the CRLs are produced (if there are any at all) if it has access to the
database?
