Hey @bmartins

EdDSA support for OpenPGPCard is available, as listed [here](https://github.com/Nitrokey/opcard-rs#features). Nevertheless `gpg` support for ed25519 is kind of dicey, but generally it should work, please report issues you find to the linked repository.

About the Secure Element: we are currently in the process of releasing the first (test) firmware with activated se050 and minimal functionality to find out if we see any weird/unexpected behavior on devices in the field. The OpenPGP implementation is mostly “functional complete” and we plan to have this released before the end of this year - as always this will strongly depend on the following weeks (how severe the bugs are, which are found in the test-released versions).
