A friend provided me this link, and I'm a little worried...
Is this
truth, and if it is, how is this problem being solved?

I guess this is the right place to ask, as all of us users
should be
concerned about this...

Well, we should ask the devs as well, since I'd say they're the ones primarily involved with this. ; Or at least those who could actually do something about it.

well, it is true, that there are problems with paperworks.

maybe. But I can't see why we users should be concerned. It
does not matter 
for us if gentoo stays 'independent' or not.

IT'S BAD NEWS, BUT NOT AS BAD AS YOU THINK.

> SOME CLARIFICATION MIGHT BE IN ORDER.

THE FOUNDATION SERVES AN A SINGLE LEGAL ENTITY THAT CAN DO
AND OWN THINGS 
ON BEHALF OF GENTOO.  HOWEVER, BEFORE THE FOUNDATION THINGS
WERE DONE AND 
OWNED BY THE VOLUNTEERS THAT MAKE UP GENTOO.  THIS IS NOT
IDEAL, WHICH IS 
WHY THE FOUNDATION WAS CREATED, BUT GENTOO COULD CERTAINLY
RUN LIKE THAT 
AGAIN UNTIL THE FOUNDATION COULD BE REFORMED UNDER
MANAGEMENT THAT KNOWS 
HOW TO FILE PAPERWORK.
