I'm a bit critical about the _one_day_ bug testing because I think it's too short to examine the bugs of something complex like a distribution.
While IRC meetings are cooncentrated they exclude all people that are not in right time zone. With present number of active users that is not good. I would prefer one thread on this list that will announce start of triage and than separate threads for each bug.
That's an argument against a meeting _time_, but not really against a meeting day. If it's a bug triage weekend (or any given couple of days), then different people can be on at different times. And particularly on a weekend, people's sleeping patterns vary quite a bit, so I don't think it's a problem.
Like I said though anyway, this is a tried, tested and proven method: many other projects have these, and they work tremendously well.
I like the idea, but I think it should spread over a couple days. Say a
48 hour period. Maybe a summary to the list. I have done projects via
email where IRC did not seem to be possible.
Good Luck,
