Is there a possibility that the people buy AO?
We are talking about a lot of money here, so it would be a new company run by AO members. The site has a stable return and therefor is a good investment. Profits from AO are gained by advertisements and potential Gold Dot site membership. Only who's going to put lot's of money in it?

There are several possibilities:

*option 1) is no longer an option. I add it only for people who did not know about this idea. But it's certainly a no no for JP.
1) JP owns it, we run it (proposed by Celfie) let the AO members run/control the site and JP still recieve the profits. contra: To much paperwork says JP

2) Some member team / individual buys it. Will cost a lot!

3) All members put some money in it like a cooperative or something similar.

4) Some members buy it (it can have a structure like what's called a vzw in Belgium, that means a consortium without profit) and have a board that decides.
