I am that individual :) I managed to get it generate the keys and even
sign something. Only in emulation, though. I've had access to
Schlumberger Cyberflex card, managed to download the applet but got
exception on applet instantiation. With no meaningful error indication.
Works fine in Sun's cref.

However, several things have discouraged me from further development:
- - discrepancy between OpenPGP card spec, the JavaCard docs and what the
JavaCard simulator really does when signing/decrypting
- - insufficient support from the Sun's cref (i.e. no RAW RSA methods,
just those with padding)

I've got a hint where to buy cheap java cards and dev kit, however I
have no time to pursue this further. Maybe sometime in the future..
