I dunno what all the drama was about that woody was expressing, looks like HiFo/Council/Others have been hard at work for us all the whole time:
Updates on the Hildon Foundation

The whole dilemma of HiFo being based in the US & affecting people (legally) that don't want to be involved will soon (Sep. 30 at latest) no longer be an issue.
That's ofc assuming that transferring US HiFo's assets to the new HiFo entity before dissolving the former won't be a drama, the update details nothing like that.

There ofc will still be the issue of hosting proprietary bits to deal with, but, this move should at least make things a bit more navigable, we hope...
