To Microsoft. You're basically becoming a slave by joining the foundation, agreeing to have them own your projects.

You don't become a slave, but you give up control of the project and you basically become a volunteer employee of Microsoft. If someone does pay you for your work on that project, then it's not so bad. If the project was your passion, it's not a good idea.

No you don’t. They have a contribution model where you keep the copyright. I recently had a project accepted under those terms.

If you go this way, why even bother with whole .NET ecosystem? It is all Microsoft. It would be easier to go with Python/Ruby maybe Java.

Going Java and dealing with Oracle is easier than .NET and Microsoft?

If I'm not mistaken, you can do Java without ever having to deal with Oracle, unless you work on Java itself.
