I'm sorry but I have to contradict you in that topic. I found out that more 'standard users' than I thought are using Smartcards or Tokens like Nitrokey or Yubikey (or anything similiar). It is requested in security/gpg workshops more and more, and in the last 3 or 4 workshops I've held, each of the 15 participiants already had a Smartcard or Token and wanted to know how to use them. So I think this is not just a topic for 'professional or power users' but also for so called standard users. best regards from Austria Juergen -- Juergen M. Bruckner
