I am +1. This is a great initiative. IMO, we could make it really regular (i.e., a specific week-day of a specific week in a month), with a rolling time (for the time-zone issue). In this matter, we could maybe clear more in advance our agenda instead of trying to find a date which accommodates everyone.
