I don't think there is anything preventing you from specifying a longer 
validity period, either on the command line to the 'ca' command or in the 
relevant ca section of the config file. (Some documentation says to specify it 
when creating the CSR, but this is wrong: the CSR does not carry that 
information as far as I know. The validity period is chosen by the CA when it 
creates the certificate.)

This is more of a openssl-users question than a openssl-dev question, so I've 
cc:'d that list; it's probably best if replies go there.
