Allcon--I need a quick favor. Can someone review the following text & diagram for accuracy? It's extracted from a high-level technical paper I'm writing re: smartcards on Linux. This is intended to be purely descriptive, and I'm mainly interested in making sure that I got the architecture description right, and I'm not comfortable enough with OpenSC and OpenCT to be certain I actually have it straight in my head yet.aTdHvAaNnKcSe. -- Tim """ OpenSC and OpenCTOpenSC[1] and OpenCT[2] are two related open source projects aimed at providing an open and portable smartcard architecture. OpenSC provides the smart card library, including support for specific cards and a PKCS#11 module for applications, while OpenCT provides an interface to the physical hardware.Figure 4 OpenSC / OpenCT architecture block diagramIn addition to the pure architecture described above, OpenSC provides an IFD Service Provider and OpenCT provides an IFD Handler for use with PC/SC, so some integration of PC/SC and OpenSC/OpenCT architecture is possible."""
