I'll forward to Achim Pietig who maintains the specs. We are already
collecting new features for a new revision.

Sure. It just a matter of time. I'd like to do this myself but I doubt
that I get to it in th next few months. Other contributions are
welcome, but remember that we need to do some legal paper exchange with
the FSF.

Hmmh, mine is 81k - quite some stuff for a smartcard. The size of the
OpenPGP keyrings was the thereason that went for the fingerprint
approach. And weel, in almost all cases you need a net connection and
thus you can get trghe certificate/keblock online.

Hey, it is already usable for with pkcs#11 (www.scute.org and Alon's
alternative scdaemon).
A design goal is to keep the specs from getting too complex - thus
pkcs#15 is nothing we should go for.
Salam-Shalom,
