Description
It would make sense if the CRL was also publsihed on our download server. That way with a cron job we could fetch it daily. (proper etag etc). That way we do not have to wait for a new server release to get an updated CRL when a certificate had to be revoked.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating how the CRL is generated and how files are published on the download server, then determine the endpoint and caching behavior needed for daily retrieval with ETags. Done means an updated CRL is available independently of server releases and can be fetched conditionally.
