PKCS#11 was designed as an API within a client system, allowing for a set of
drivers under it in order to link to each crypto process/token (server). My
understanding of the purpose of both PKCS#15 and ISO/IEC 7816-15 is that
they are meant to standardise the interface (card edge) to a smart card
crypto token. Agree on a universal card edge and then its possible to
develop a universal PKCS#11 module (well, perhaps several, depeending on the
inetrface to the next layer down) as a driver inside the PC.
