Announcing the Zulip Foundation

[Tim Abbott]

We’re announcing 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.

To share the news, please repost on LinkedIn, Mastodon, Bluesky and anywhere else.

Any feedback and questions can reach us via our usual support channels. We also invite everyone to 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).

-Tim Abbott, for of the Zulip team
