i didn't find any reference to working with a cryptographic token. for example to create a CA which its private key is inside a token. is there any plan to support HSM?

Hi @4bo, we are not using such a feature, at the moment the features offered by django-x509 are enough for @openwisp, nonetheless I am open for improvements if those can help other people reuse the core which we built here for other purposes. In this particular case, I don't have experience with this tecnique so I don't have a lot of suggestions.
