Hmmm, the issue I see here is that someone with enough knowledge of opensc and all the relevant standards needs to write the code. This code needs either be compliant with the current situation or require a complete rewrite of opensc (with potential destabilization, ...). All this takes time, and I fear noone matching the description above has enough time to do that. So , this is surely not a goal reachable in short term. What about the following compromise / approach: Quân & I try to continue our path with OpenPGP and the current opensc infrastructure. If someone writes the infrastructure for the other option, we will happily migrate the openpgp driver (as it should simplify the driver).
