Hi Anthony,

> ? is there a developers guide for writing plugins

[1] has some general information and there are a lot of plugins you
could have a look at.

> ? what would the plugin do

Process OCSP requests and return responses (probably via HTTP) and/or do
the same for CRLs.

> ? does (RFC 6960) apply

If you implement an OCSP server, sure.

Also, the x509 plugin does not actually support parsing OCSP requests or
generating OCSP responses because strongSwan currently only needs the
reverse.

Regards,
Tobias
