Is there a difference between LDAP and CRL?

In context of Public Key Infrastructure ? By LDAP i mean publicly available public keys exposed by an LDAP server that you can query using the LDAP protocol ? CRL stands for certificate revocation list, in other words it contains certificates not to be trusted. Do these two protocols depend on the same database of public key certificates ? I have a CA here, that announced it would not continue updating the CRL, but their responses to LDAP queries seem up to date.
