may be set to a revocation list for certificates which have been
revoked by the trusted authorities.
At present, no revocation list is provided.
You may want to put keys here too ...if you have an openssl 'traditional' style
key you may (depending on your version of gnutls: newer versions can read
openssl specific keys) need to convert it to the standard PKCS8 format.
You can use openssl to do that as follows:
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -v2 des3 -in old_key.pem -out new_key.pem
You will be asked (3 times) for the password for the key, as the tool needs to
decrypt it and encrypt it again in standard format.
