Hi, +1 from my side too.
In this case I think it should not be just a day, but the whole week-end. Could be just like we had before: the 'first' week-end of the month. The participation might be low, but at least we could have it as a 'rule'. If we have results over that week-end, we publish a blog post about them. Just as an idea, we could also monitor translations, extensions, pull requests, etc. submitted over that week-end, so make it not just a BugFixingDay but a "Contributions Week-end". I know it might sound strange for an Open Source project (because contributions should happen every day), but this means just that those contributions would be monitored and published in a blog post, thanking our contributors and allowing them to organize on IRC.
