[tahoe-dev] some questions about tahoe-lafs

Hi,

I checked the FAQ but couldn't find answers to these, so I'm asking here.

1) which clouds are supported to act as nodes? (mega.co.nz? skydrive?
gdrive? dropbox?)

2) what was the motivation for requiring a gateway for accessing the files?
Couldn't it be done only with a client?
I ask this question because if you only required a client for accessing the
data, you could access the data from your mobile (as in having only a
single device). But it seems that as it is, you will always need a trusted
computer running tahoe-lafs 24/7 --- which will be a problem if you're
traveling.

3) tahoe-lafs has a small visibility (only recently I've heard about it),
as opposed to more well known projects like Truecrypt, which has more users
and a higher chance of any issues being identified. Has any 3rd party code
review been done?

Thank you for your time.

Cheers
