Brad Patrick, general counsel for the Wikimedia Foundation, distinguished between community (i.e., different projects) and organization (i.e., Wikimedia Foundation). [There was another lawyer, but I didn't catch his name and, strangely, there is no page on the schedule that tells me what his name is.]
A term that kept getting repeated—and Patrick said that we need to get used to it—was "I don't know." And that's because there are a lot of legal issues that have yet to be decided on or even brought to court. Wikipedia has actually brought up questions that haven't been raised before.
