Dear all,

I'm resurrecting this thread, as the costs of the currect setup of trac 
hosted on Google Cloud Compute are prohibitive, at the current rate we are 
spending over US$4500 per year on it.

For trac+wiki+zulip: December 2019 – December 2020 (forecasted total cost)  
$4,644.67

These are paid by UW's hosted Sage Foundation, which is projected to run 
out of money soon.
We've started OpenCollective and GitHub sponsoring, but the rate the 
donations coming in there would only suffices for perhaps 25-30% of this 
figure.

Options:


   1. find money
   2. find cheaper (ideally, free, based in an academic institution) 
   provider
   3. migrate to GitHub or another (semi)gratis platform, e.g. GitLab, 
   sw.ht, etc.

Savings also may be made by re-hosting zulip and wiki somewhere else.
They should be very easy to move I suppose.

Dima
