the foundation supports open source graphics development (x.org, wayland, mesa, drm/kms, et al) through things like organising conferences, which it can only do if it can collect sponsorship money to pay for them. additionally, it also owns the x.org domain. that's it. any other kind of responsibility/oversight, including technical (even for x.org, let alone wayland) was a very explicit non-goal from the start.
