I am confused.
*Why* would the Foundation press release not be hosted
on the Foundation website exactly ?
And, what would be the benefit to put a press release
in a place where anyone can modify it after it is send
to press ?

This is how I understood the proposal.
On en.Wikinews we are using Portal: namespace to
create areas of news
concentrated on a specific topic. It would be easy
enough to create a
Portal:Wikimedia for press releases about Wikimedia,
with new press
releases created as Portal:Wikimedia/Press release
date/Title or similar
naming convention, to keep them out of the main
namespace.
Another option for en.Wikinews would be to create a
portal-like page
under the Wikinews: namespace, perhaps
Wikinews:Wikimedia Foundation
press releases. Similar idea for naming the press
releases.
We could not run them as articles, but I believe we
can host WMF press
releases so long as they are not in the main
namespace.

Okay, wait, maybe I misunderstood you.
Do you want to put all Wikimedia press releases on
Wikinews, instead
of putting them in the so called "press
rooms"?
