I just published 0.2.0 releases of the low-level "openpgp-card" crate and its backends: https://crates.io/search?q=openpgp-card
This release introduces support for PCSC transactions, which allows for orderly use of OpenPGP cards in environments with more than one program trying to use cards concurrently (like our CI system: https://sequoia-pgp.org/blog/2021/12/20/202112-openpgp-card-ci/).
In 1989 we published the GNU #GPL. It is at the core of software freedom and it protects users' rights to run, copy, modify, and share. Read more about free software licensing https://www.fsf.org/licensing

Huge.
