gnupg-pkcs11

gnupg-pkcs11 is a project to implement a BSD-licensed smart-card daemon to enable the use of PKCS#11 tokens with GnuPG. The motivation behind this project originates in the following two threads:

• http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2006-February/027964.html
• http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-devel/2004-November/021522.html
• http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2004-November/023673.html

The patch mentioned in the above threads is unmaintained, so we decided to implement PKCS#11 support "the right way". gnupg-pkcs11 is a (hopefully) drop-in replacement for the smart-card daemon (scd) shipped with GnuPG.
