It's PKCS#15 format for interoperability, and the compatibility with OpenSC is among the most important test cases. Moreover, Feitian's token support secret key objects stored in PKCS#15 format, which haven't been supported by OpenSC by now. Even with these efforts, it's not 100% compatible with OpenSC. Sorry, we tried to, but failed. We could have managed to achieve this if we get rid of one of the key features in proprietary driver. As a result, Feitian's software refuse to write(not read) smart cards formatted by OpenSC, and vice versa. _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
