I believe that is already done during the Ubuntu Open Week? We didn't have
it this cycle since it's basically a team of two running it and we were
quite busy.
Still, we could give it a shot. Bare in mind that we are still hosting IRC
sessions since it's hard for some people to watch them due to time,
bandwidth and language constraints.
