Even tough skins are evolving fast, they are not completely independent 
yet. Thus, although you are using Toucan, Velocity templates in 
Albatross does still control many aspects of the layout.

To get what you want, you need to modify footer.vm in 
albatross/templates. Or create a new skin and put a new footer.vm file 
in its folder.

Consider this link as a good starting point to create a new skin...

http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins#HCreatingawholenewskin

Doing that, it will be much more easier to update to new XWiki releases: 
you will have all your customization in a separate folder that you will 
want to copy to the new directory once you update the basic structure. 
If you modify files in the included skins, you must later be able to 1) 
keep track of these changes 2) compare new releases with the one you 
have in your wiki to see if any new feature/parameter has been 
introduced (Release notes will help, what it is by no means easy to do 
this).

There are much more different options to customize skins! I am just 
starting to understand how things are doing here...

HTH,

Ricardo
