it's a separate legal entity, independent of Mozilla intended to document the web.

It seems like they're going to 'own' MDN from a funding perspective among other future proejcts

my short summary is: Mozilla is spinning-off MDN into a separate entity

that separate entity may attracting funding and donations that wouldn't normally contribute to Mozilla for various reasons in the same amounts

They should have just put this as headline instead. Sigh.

it's ambiguous, because technically Mozilla could retain ownership of MDN but delegate maintenance to this new entity.
