It was recently reported [1] that IdenTrust experienced a multi-day OCSP
outage about two weeks ago. Other recent OCSP issues have resulted in
incident reports [3][4], so I am concerned that IdenTrust didn't report
this, and I created a bug [5] to ensure that we track the issue (assuming
the report of an extended outage is accurate).

I also created an issue [6] suggesting that Mozilla clarify expectations
for reporting CRL and OCSP outages. These services are notoriously
unreliable and I doubt that a constant barrage of reports for brief outages
would be manageable. I believe that Mozilla does expect CAs to report
"significant" outages, but there is currently no guidance to help CAs
determine when they should file a report.

Should we have minimum uptime requirements? For instance 90% for a 24 hour period and 95% per 30 days?
