Samuel, why would you want to implement the engine? There are 2
available PKCS#11 engines out there, one from Sun and one from OpenSC.
It seems to me that the one from OpenSC is mainly for accessing keys and
certs in the PKCS#11 tokens. The one from Sun can use the underlying
PKCS#11 framework to accelerate crypto operations as well. It can also
access private/public keys in the tokens, it cannot access certificates
yet. J.
