So just to be extra double clear about this, it is *possible* to run  
a Tahoe-LAFS gateway on an embedded ARM system -- François has  
contributed a buildbot that we use to test that -- but what the  
Android client runs is *not* a Tahoe-LAFS gateway, but instead just  
an HTTP client.  Right, François?

So neither storage (which is provided by storage servers) nor  
security (which is provided by Tahoe-LAFS gateways) is provided by  
the Android device.

If you are confused about the difference between a Tahoe-LAFS gateway  
and a Tahoe-LAFS client, please see this diagram:
