[openpgp] Open PGP Specification 3.4 Questions and Clarifica tions

Hi !

I am getting interested in Open PGP Javacard Applet and I'm analyzing the impact on UIF ( User Interaction Flag) being implemented on top of a mandatory Open PGP Applet.

I do have few questions where the specification do not provide sufficient details on what the behavior is expected for the applet under User Interaction flag. Hopefully I found the good contact information for this kind of questions.

Here is the list of questions :

  *
Is the General Feature Management setup should be hardcoded based on the platform it is on ? I feel this could be set the same way as the UIF for CDS DEC and AUT with some options of enabled or permanently enabled so that a same applet could run on either a hardware with button keypad or so or without and still share the same cap file. In acse the put data command is not an option, could we use C9 parameters to configure this DO ?
  *
Does the UIF need to match the General Feature Management bits ? I mean does do we need to check UIF put data command to see if the UIF being setup matches the one present in the General Management Feature.
Example : Button is not set in General Feature Management but admin is setting up button as part of a put data command  for PSO:CDS. Should this return for example conditions not satified ?
  *
Usage of UIF in Internal Authenticate :  The UIF is defined for PSO:AUT. Does it replace User PIN Code ? Is it always in addition ? Or should a configuration be set in order to should one of the 2 options ?
  *
Usage of UIF in Internal Authenticate : Does the Internal Authenticate with Secure Messaging applies the UIF as well  ?

Thank you very much in advance for your feedback on those questions.


Best Regards,
