Hi again Mark :o)

I don't know here how to initiate a move on the right direction. I agree that, 
at least at the moment, all these 
messages are coming from gpg and thus Kleopatra itself cannot influence the 
smart card management. We could of course 
simply remove my entry on Kleopatra bugs report system and then start a topic 
on gpg side.
>From the other side, in my opinion it is not necessarily a good idea to assign 
>(and consequently centralise) all 

smartcard related tasks to a piece of software that is external to the 
front-end application. Typically, the smartcard 
reader initialisation should be made by the front-end itself (what will happen 
for instance if several front-ends are 
used simultaneously?). I think pcsc was made to manage this kind of things and 
I don't really see an advantage adding a 
new software-layer. Of course scdaemon should still be used but only to treat 
the smartcard related objects that 
concerns the certificates, keys and other crypto-objects; so I can imagine that 
a collaboration between gpg and 
kleopatra communities may be very helpful, but how to initiate it? What's your 
point of view?

With warmest regards,

Manu Favre

P.S. 
I not familiar in working in an open source environment, so if some of 
proposals seem strange to you, please be 
understanding :o|
