I generally host at Contabo [1], a German provider. If desired, I would 
offer to provide you with a VPS instance and fully cover these costs for 
the first year. If after that (or in general) someone wants to 
contribute to the costs, we will definitely find a solution that is 
acceptable to everyone.

And I think Henning's offer about the domain gnupg.social is very 
suitable for this project.

In my view, someone from the GnuPG core team should be in control of the 
account.

Any other opinions and suggestions?
