Hello, To be honest I can't follow the discussion in detail, nor do I want to add oil to the continued dialogue unless one of the following is true: - OpenSC shall now create data structures that are not PKCS#15 conforming (requires a consensus on interpretation), or break some other "SignificantSoftware" or "SignificantSolution" (affects 90% of users) - OpenSC will have demonstrated regressions with new code for cards that have been personalized with earlier versions of OpenSC. - Will it create cards that will have demonstrated unrecoverable regressions if anything is changed from "now" to "before" with cards created in between? - Does it break anything *right now*?
For me the overall changes seem legit, yet I can easily ignore some fine nuances of the specs or code or just have too little background information to know for sure. Maybe a more precise "before", "now", "actually required" behavior examples would do good, without having to re-interpret several specs to come to the same examples and conclusions.
