You mentioned that one component is the small proprietary HID code
for Linux and that part is of course not available, but it seemed
like the other parts might be? Or did I misunderstand?

Can you say more about the software on Linux for that token?

Oh, no that was Anders' suggestion. Maybe that's the confusion.

I agree with him that as far as existing card/token standards go, PIV
is indeed likely to be well and widely supported, but I don't have
any opinion on changing the ePass2003 firmware.

I'm not interested in having yet another token laying around. :)
But I am however interested in the protocol! And I would look at the
Linux software situation for that HID token and I would maybe also be
able to find improvements. I just don't need the token to do that.

I think this is smart, especially if the Feitian HID token is an
older product and no new HID token is planned.

Thanks! The idea was always only about a protocol optimized for
security, usability and portability, and it still needs r&d, so
please don't get the impression that I am trying to make someone
else use it before I have shown that it works.

Don't worry, as you know I'm not a significant contributor.
