Looks like Directors have to be a "natural person". So that would

Yes, it would need to be a representative selected by the WMF, not the
WMF itself.
Would that satisfy the Foundation? What Sue Grdaner is exploring is what
might be required by the WMF Board of Trustees compliance with US
legislation.
The dissonance between the USA (such as 501(c)3 - not for profit) and
the UK (registered charity, etc) is the issue (again!).
Interesting to note that Canadian donors will only get the tax benefits
from their US taxable income.
