[Mono-list] Problems with CRLDistributionPointsExtension

[Sebastien Pouliot]

Hello again Kim,

IIRC you can do

X509Extension ex = x509.Extensions ["2.5.29.31"];
if (ex != null)
	cdpExt = new CRLDistributionPointsExtension (xe);
...

The DistributionPoint SEQUENCE (inside the CRLDistributionPoint) isn't
decoded.

Sadly it's been a while since I've worked on this code. I will eventually
resume this to support CRL and other Fx 2.0 features but until then only the
features that Mono required elsewhere are implemented.

a.	Contribute the code :-) or
b.	Fill a bug in bugzilla.ximian.com, attach sample code and a sample
certificate;
