Legal status is the least of what I meant. Compare what OSMF does with
this quarterly report from the KDE foundation:

http://ev.kde.org/reports/ev-quarterly-2012_Q3.pdf

Not only is all this stuff happening but they also have people who
prepare such a nice quarterly report.

Also note fund raising efforts, expenses and donations, partners, new
members etc.

This is an organization that actually supports the community in their
efforts. And they are not "evil" in doing that.

What can be done to steer OSMF into that direction? Can it be even done
at this point?
