Big error, read the signature of the first mail by Kat Walsh:

For the Wikimedia Foundation, Kat Walsh"

Or, perhaps, we could read the second sentence of her email, which explicitly says what Gerard alluded to:
"A formal declaration in the form of a Board resolution has not yet been made and will be forthcoming; however, we hope that this longer message will provide the explanation behind the resolution."
In other words - she is speaking for the Foundation, but this is not the formal announcement, it's an outline of what the announcement is broadly intended to be.
