Have a look at the first sentence on the homepage. It simply states that 
TDF is a Foundation, while strictly spoken, it isn't (yet). The lack of 
clear information about this on the website might lead outsiders to 
suspect that TDF want to sweep some uncomfortable facts under the rug.
The word "Foundation" in this sentence could be made a web link to a 
page that explains about the current situation and the progress towards 
becoming an actual foundation. That way, things would become much 
clearer. After the foundation is established, the link could point to 
the Statutes and similar information.
