ooops,

I should read the OCF mails in the future more carefully. 
I'm very sorry about that and I have to take your advise silently.

You are totaly right, in your following sentence the thinks were very
clear 
described:

> When CardTerminal.internalSendAPDU() is called and a CommandAPDU must be

Please excuse my awful mistake.

Unfortunaly I'will not become rich now ;-), but however the decission to 
encapsulate the protocol behaviour in the Terminal Service is obvious 
the right one.

regards

Thomas
