Hi,
        
I'd like to see the Austrian e-card supported by opensc. Since I am an
Austrian citizen I do have an e-card and a card reader. I also tried
opensc with it and played around with it a bit. 
        
Although I am quite new to smart cards I will try as much as I can to
achive this goal. Is there any way that you can help me, or that I can
help you - if you are interested at all?
        
So far, I found out that the e-card is based on G&D STARCOS 3.1 OS. This
is quite the same as 3.0 but with ecc instead of rsa. i.e. means it
cannot generate any rsa keys but only ecc.
        
3.x is - on the other side - much more compliant to iso7816.
Unfortunately the documentation to STARCOS 3.x disappeared from G&D's
website.
        
As a start I modified the starcos code to match the proper atr and
detect the card correctly. I know that is not much but it is a start.
        
What do you think about it?
        
Regards,
