Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.2
------------------------------------------------
+ * New command "verify" in the card-edit menu to display
+ the Private-DO-3. The Admin command has been enhanced to take
+ the optional arguments "on", "off" and "verify". The latter may
+ be used to verify the ADmin Pin without modifying data; this
+ allows displayin the Private-DO-4 with the "list" command.
+
+ * Rewrote large parts of the card code to optionally make use of a
+ running gpg-agent. If --use-agent is beeing used and a
+ gpg-agent with enabled scdaemon is active, gpg will now divert
+ all card operations to that daemon. This is required because
+ bot, scdaemon and gpg require exclusive access to the card
+ reader. By delegating the work to scdaemon, both can peacefully
+ coexist and scdaemon is able to control the use of the reader.
+ Note that this requires at least gnupg 1.9.17.
+
+ * Fixed a couple of problems with the card reader.
