We once apparently had someone think that it'd be "neat and tidy" to 
have a root CA cert's validity end 01-Jan 00:00 ... 'nuff said.

However: That's a central server that supposedly can be adminned only by 
your IT, and is being monitored in some way, likely allowing to keep 
tabs on whether the installed CRL is current/recent (or someone snuck in 
some pre-revocation version), too. What's the rationale to limit a CRL 
installed *there* to a lifetime of one week, if that's a burden to ops?

Kind regards,
