I've created sagemath.zulipchat.com and requested sponsorship as an open
source project.   I exported our current Zulip history into a tarball as a
test.  We probably want to wait until the current Sage Days is over to
complete the migration so there's no disruption (the traffic is low enough
that I'll probably pick a convenient time to deactivate it for a day, port
the history over to zulipchat.com and then invite all our current users to
the new organization).
