"Last June, Red Hat announced its intention to launch the Fedora Foundation. We've had a lot of smart people working hard to make this Foundation happen, but in the end, it just didn't help to accomplish our goals for Fedora. Instead, we are restructuring Fedora Project, with dramatically increased leadership from within the Fedora community. The next obvious question - 'Why no Foundation?' - deserves a detailed explanation."

Look at it this way, there is no way the community vote can win which means they have just lost influence on the direction of their project.The future foundation along with the implied sence of autonomy has been shelfed. This independence is spoken about in this document. I am not saying Red Hat has bad intentions only that the way the voting is set up is a joke.

they already did have veto power. nothing changed in that respect, what is changing is more community involvement.
