We’re reaching out to administrators of Zulip organizations to announce a major transition for the Zulip open-source project and the Kandra Labs company behind it: I’m stepping back from full-time Zulip leadership, and donating the company to a newly created nonprofit Zulip Foundation. The new structure provides stability, a renewed commitment to our values, and new opportunities for charitable fundraising.

The new Zulip Foundation will be the formal steward of the Zulip project, with a mission of developing the best possible team chat experience, with particular focus on public-interest organizations and communities.

Please check out the announcement blog post to learn about the Zulip Foundation’s leadership, and more. If you have any questions or concerns, please join us for a live chat Q&A in the Zulip development community on Tuesday, May 19 at 4 PM UTC (9 AM US Pacific / 12 PM US Eastern / 6 PM CET), or reach out to support@zulip.com.

— Tim Abbott, on behalf of the Zulip team

3/4 of the board will be working for anthropic. that doesn't mean zulip will be integrated with anthropic or anything, but I'd like to see a new board soon
