I think more is needed, but the legwork is finished in SoftHSM. It's a soft p11 provider in a library with 2-clause BSD license. It could certainly be made to run on a USB microcontroller. The database is well abstracted, the crypto stuff not as much, but I guess that could be solved by making a botan compatibility layer for a suitable C crypto library. Wedge USB in between the front and the back of the library - done! :) //Peter _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
