Perhaps openssl should become an Apache project? Keep the foundation for
financial reasons, but use their infrastructure and such. Or perhaps
consider adopting a large portion of their “rules.”
As a US based organization, Apache is unsuited and (given fairly recent
public news) untrusted to have any power of a project such as OpenSSL.
Additionally, the Apache foundation has accumulated so many important
projects over the last few years that it they are becoming a single
point of failure for too many things (or "too big to fail" as it is
called in some other sectors).
Thus I think a different organization would be needed if OpenSSL were
to give up its independence.
Enjoy
