I would not describe it as messy.
In how I experienced things, there is nothing wrong in how Team 
OpenOffice.org eV (as legal entity) collected the donations, worked 
together in the community council, where the money was spend for the 
various goals in the community.
And the fact that we have to do with more (legal) entities in a certain 
relation, is not so unique in life, IMO.

How Oracle-council members acted last days, has nothing to do with that. 
It is obvious that they have a rather different understanding of and 
feeling of the current situation, then the people supporting TDF.
