This is not full PKCS#11 provider and has many limitations of
implementation and many other inherited from OpenPGP specification.
Examples:
1. Limitation of 1024 RSA key size.
2. Requirement to hold the certificate within gpgsm and not on card.
3. Complex communication between
application->provide
I agree to these limitations and would love to get rid of them by having
an open and pkcs#11 compatible implementation. But we do not have the
capacity and experience to develop such a smart card right now.
Therefore any support to develop such an open smart card implementation
is more than welcome
Hi Alon! Currently I am testing your pkcs#11 extension for gnupg. An
pkcs#11 compatible open source implementation of a smart card or USB
stick is something that we are planning for v2 in the future.

As PKCS#11 is the interface applications use.
You will be able to use GPG using [1] if you like without more effort.

Hi!
Currently we are developing an USB stick based on the OpenPGP smart card
as an open source project. This is basically a simple smart card adapter
based on the IC FT2232D (http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/FT2232C.htm).
Linux includes modules to communicate with the FT2232 in general but not
spec
