The wiki tries to be informative.

The best we can do is to propose the same level of information for all
cards. This includes:
- the reader name used for the measures
- the script used for the measures
- the results of at least 100 measures
- a nice graphic of the measures

It is best to use the same reader for all the cards. Some readers are
faster than others. See [1]. But the card/reader communication time
should be negligible compared to the time to generate a RSA key pair.
So the reader used may not be so important in the present case.

Jean-Michel, can you work on setting up the tools and procedure?

Bye
