As I understand it, the foundation is in the US, so it would need written copyright assignment from all contributors before it could take ownership of contribution copyrights like that. It's the same reason you have to send papers to FSF before you can contribute much to most GNU projects. The foundation could require a particular copyright licence on all contributions and - if the contribution licence allows - distribute under a different licence, like "commercial complete republication forbidden". It would be helpful to me if code snippets could be reused under the same terms as the rest of Cake, though. However, I suggest checking the above comments with a lawyer. I'm neither in the US, nor a copyright lawyer, but I doubt whoever wrote those terms of service was a US lawyer either.
