Put the Foundation link on the top navbar.

Isn't this something we should discuss on www@ ? We mostly had the idea that
if something was to be added on the pages we should remove something to
refrain from getting overloaded again. That said; we still have multiple
reported issues which should be resolved prior to adding these kind of
links.
I would like to see at least some discussion on www@ first so could you
please ponder on backing out this change till this had been discussed?
Hmm. I would really prefer we keep the highly visible top-of-page link for
the Foundation while the details are sorted it out, rather than removing it.
The Foundation is about $140k in the red on our annual budget right now, and
we're in the throes of a fundraising campaign to try to raise the funds to pay
for next year's developer travel, conference sponsorshop (AsiaBSDCon,
EuroBSDCon, BSDCan), developer summits, etc. I appreciate the need to go
about things the right way, hence our contacting doceng to request the change
in the first place, but there is a very real and concrete reason we want it on
there: if we don't raise the funds, the Foundation won't be doing much in 18
months' time. Can we find a way to resolve the technical issues on the
schedule they will inevitably take to resolve without reducing Foundation
visibility on the front page?
