Indirect CRLs (vocabulary)
Extract from: draft-ietf-pkix-rfc3280bis-01.txt :
If the scope of the CRL includes one or more certificates issued by an entity other than the CRL issuer, then it is an indirect CRL.

Proposed replacement:
If the issuer of the CRL is a not a CA, or if the issuer of the CRL is a CA and the scope of the CRL includes certificates issued by one or more other CAs, then this CRL is called an indirect CRL.

A definition for “delegated CRL” might be:
A delegated CRL is an indirect CRL where the issuer of the CRL is not a CA and where the scope of the CRL only include certificates issued by one CA.
