* Apply security fix for cardos driver and extend pkcs15-tool to test
cards for the security vulnerability and update them (CVE-2008-2235).
* Build system rewritten (NOTICE: configure options was modified).
The build system can produce outputs for *NIX, cygwin and native
windows (using mingw).
* ruToken now supported.
* Allow specifying application name for data objects.
* Basic reader hotplug support.
* PC/SC library is dynamic linked no longer compile time dependency.
* PKCS#11 provider is now installed at LIBDIR/pkcs11
* PKCS#11 - Number of virtual slots moved into configuration.
* PKCS#11 - Fix fork() compliance.
* make sign_with_decrypt hack configureable for siemens cards.
* Single PLIST file.
* Use CONF_FILES for configuration file.
* DESTDIR ready.
OpenSC provides a set of libraries and utilities to access smart cards.
Its main focus is on cards that support cryptographic operations, and
facilitate their use in security applications such as mail encryption,
authentication, and digital signature. OpenSC implements the PKCS#11 API
so applications supporting this API such as Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird
can use it. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15 standard and aims to be compatible
with every software that does so, too.
