Hi, That's great. Now the quetsion of two applets vs introducing the OS clients to the existing applets came up.
I beleive we already have an applet on our card from the vendor or the managing group of the CAC cards. I was asked today if we really need another applet or, if we just 'teach' the muscle and linux applications how to communicate correctly. Do we really need two applets? Would two applets be more maintainable than one, etc. I could not answer the question with any certantity. Any thoughts?
