[Pki-devel] [PATCH] 0017 Enable Authority Key Identifier CRL extension

This patch enables the Authority Key Identifier CRL Extension, which
is REQUIRED by RFC 5280, by default.

Should existing instances be left alone or should I also look at an
upgrade script that offers to upgrade CS.cfg to be conformant?

Subject: [PATCH] Enable Authority Key Identifier CRL extension by default

RFC 5280 states:

   Conforming CRL issuers are REQUIRED to include the authority key
   identifier (Section 5.2.1) and the CRL number (Section 5.2.3)
   extensions in all CRLs issued.

Accordingly, update CS.cfg so that the Authority Key Identifier
extension is enabled by default.
