Yes. The collective group does that.
Everything you state is correct.
ok than I misunderstood your earlier sentence ("but are shutting down more and more because of lack of time to properly **maintain** everything."), so you are not specifically looking for technical people but people coordinating things (what kind of things?)
Everything that one can think about to do, both as German Zwiebelfreunde as well as "as umbrella". For example, we never managed to produce financial transparency on either level, which is a shame also towards the partner organizations. We have no task list and I didn't start one because (from experience) that means spending a lot of time coordinating things.
Since I've seen the shutdown "notice" before I assume it won't be happening soon and sharply but I still would like to get an understanding of the scope of the "shutdown".> When you say "shut down Torservers" is that limited to the umbrella project or does that also include Zwiebelfreunde e.V., your relays and the RIPE membership/LIR (and therefore also affects those that make use of your IP space)?
It would be a slow shutdown, with probably LIR functions remaining. In some respect we are already "shut down" since we don't do much actively any more, neither as association nor as umbrella. We still perform the functions claimed on the website, and we still convert donations to exit traffic, but there's a lot more we could be doing.
