You should check the content of a generated CRL, then you can see that
it follows exactly what RFC5280 says.
openssl crl -inform DER -in ManagementCA.crl -text
Serial Number: 37606FCBBCDF2D31
Revocation Date: Dec 10 14:27:43 2014 GMT
CRL entry extensions:
X509v3 CRL Reason Code:
Superseded
Serial Number: 5BCF9BA74FF3F424
Revocation Date: Dec 10 14:26:53 2014 GMT
Regards,
Tomas
