Taking a look, it turns out we've had "python" in a list of subdomains that are reserved so nobody can register them through the signup form. The comment in the source suggests the idea was that we might put a blog at that URL someday. This seems like a still better use of the name, though. :-)
I've just gone and renamed the org that was at python-lang.zulipchat.com to be at python.zulipchat.com. Brett, would you confirm you can log in there now and everything seems in order?
