how about a Global Testing Jam?

At this week's meeting I brought up the idea of perhaps having a
Global Testing Jam. I was thinking about the idea of these Global Jams
and thought that maybe ISO testing (and testing in general) would be
another way to not only get people involved with Ubuntu, but also get
some more widespread hardware coverage. There's 3 main things I came
up with that we need to determine:

1) When to do it. Suggestions are Alpha 5 or 6 to get as much testing
in before the Kernel freeze or at Beta to try to pick up more people
for the final push. Perhaps we can do both or make one a LoCo-focused
Jam and another a Testing Day more akin to Hug Days.

2) Who's going to coordinate with the LoCos and oversee organizing the Jam

3) What documentation/wiki pages do we need? There's a fair amount of
documentation under https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing but we may want a
specific Jam page that pulls it all together and has more specific
instructions of what we want people to do.

Thoughts ?
