I'm excited about Zulip as a Slack-style tool, especially for teams. (Separate from the discussion of whether FOSS project collaboration should be Slackish or IRCish.)
Are there any plans to support multiple teams / multiple servers from the native client? This is a particularly acute pain point on mobile; I'm reluctant to promote any tool that requires me to be logged in to only one project's instance of the tool at a time, because if it works well, it gets adopted for other projects, and then I'm having to juggle clients. I am unfortunately on two projects that use HipChat, and even there it's a huge pain that I can't be logged in to both simultaneously on my phone. (Some of their desktop apps finally support multiteam which is a huge help, but I still have to pick just one to participate in on mobile..)
Slack isn't perfect, but at least all the native clients will let me be logged in to 5 teams at the same time. (And no, opening multiple browser tabs is not an appropriate solution - it doesn't work at all on iOS, for example.) And obviously, this is something IRC does a great job of as well.
