#3Can Codeberg.org achieve long-term financial sustainability relying solely on member fees?
Are there any successful precedents for this model ?

#4Oh it's much worse than that. They only accept member fees paid by SEPA transfers. As in Single Euro Payment Area. Don't live in a country that uses the Euro or is part of the EU? Your money isn't welcome here.
What a dumb policy.

This is just wrong: they support both SEPA and international bank transfers through IBAN.

Isn't IBAN just the account identifier SEPA uses?
(The other identifier necessary to make SEPA transfers being the BIC = bank id.)

#8Yes. I am a paying member and thus I get the member newsletter where finances are disclosed and discussed. It’s a low-cost operation and we have enough reserves in the bank.

IBAN is the international bank number.

For donations they also offer liberapay so you can use stripe and PayPal.
For membership fees you can also use direct bank transfer.
