Hello,

The slides that I used for the talk about OpenSC on the EEMA conference are 
available online [1]. Comments, questions and general bashing welcome. I hope 
the talk made more sense than the accompanying slides I put together last night.

Douglas, special thanks for work on PIV were sent to you from Jim Dray from 
NIST, I think you deserve most of the "thank you for the work on OpenSC, it 
enabled me to use PIV on Linux in about 5 minutes"!

The overall theme of the conference has been "3rd generation, cloud based 
identity". The problem with electronic identity conferences (if you remove the 
technical security bits) has not changed much IMHO, a few years ago it was all 
about "user centric identity" (OpenID, MS CardSpace etc). Today the conceptual 
base model is still not fixed and many presenters talk again about 
philosophical aspects of identity ("No one knows you're a dog") and a lot of 
buzzwords like "federated identity", "trust assurance", "credential sharing", 
"trust", "cloud based identity", "multi-vendor identity", "cost-effective 
TCO/ROT" and other BINGO! material :-)

Also, Italians seem to get their act together and have improvements on Italian 
eID card(s) code in OpenSC, lets see when and how this will appear on 
opensc-devel.

Cheers,
Martin
