It would be important to have a legal form that establishes a supporting association so that this site is independent of individual persons, so that there can be a fluctuation of operators, but the site itself remains secure.
I am not familiar with foreign legal forms. In German law, the only sensible legal form for such a project would be the "eingetragener Verein (e.V.)" (“registered association”), whereby the composition of the association and the board can change without the association itself having to change in any way. In addition, there is an exclusion of liability for the persons acting in a business capacity, which would certainly be an important point in all matters that potentially have to do with law and claims for damages.
Setting up such an association in Germany is relatively cumbersome for anyone who wants to read up on it a little more:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vereinsrecht_(Germany)
And as a Google translated version: https://de-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goo...r_pto=wapp
But perhaps there will be many contributors from other countries who would have a better system for the superstructure of such a site?
