Incorporation/es

Cuando Miraheze fue fundada en julio de 2015, todos sus activos (es decir, fondos, nombres de dominio y servidores) estaban bajo el control de John Lewis. Desde diciembre de 2015, Brent Laabs está a cargo de esos activos.

However, this is not a viable situation. All of Miraheze being the responsibility and personal assets of one person poses major risks in various ways for all stakeholders. As such, incorporation was deemed mandatory. In the initial plans, Miraheze would become a 501(c)(3) organization in the United States, but in late 2019 after considering and exploring different statuses, it was decided to start a not-for-profit company in the United Kingdom. Owen Baines, a family member of John, has taken the lead to do all the required paper work and organisation of this not-for-profit company.

The not-for-profit company, Miraheze Limited, was registered on 20 November 2019. Due to several issues that need to be handled (for example the transfer of assets), it has been decided that there will be a transition period until 31 December 2019. As such, changes will be small and planned but should not cause any impact on users.

See for Miraheze Limited's Governing Document.

Board of Directors
The board of directors lead the operations of the not-for-profit company. The first directors will be:

It is important to know votes are divided evenly among the directors. All directors mentioned above have reached the age of majority in their country and the United Kingdom (which is 18+).

What changes after 31 December?

 * Legal status: Miraheze will be a not-for-profit limited company registered in the United Kingdom.
 * Staff/Sysadmins: There will be no changes visible to users: all current sysadmins keep the same status and responsibilities as before incorporation.
 * Directors: As Miraheze will be not-for-profit company, there will be a board composed of three directors
 * Terms of Use/Privacy Policy: Changes will be made regarding the jurisdiction (now the United Kingdom), Copyright laws (to respect the United Kingdom laws) as well as minor grammatical changes
 * Finance: Finance will no longer managed by Labster but instead will be managed by one of the directors, Owen from now on
