I suggest 10pm UTC. This is 9am in Melbourne, 11pm in Europe, 5pm US
east coast, 2pm US west coast. It's not ideal for Asia, but it's
always going to be 3am for someone. Perhaps we could rotate the
meeting time so the next one was more suitable for different people.

Why can't you get on IRC? Would it help if I added the en.admins
channel to the IRC web gateway at <http://irc.wikicities.com/wp/>?
Currently it is just used for the Arabic and Croatian channels.

This sounds like the Wikicouncil idea, but that received little support:
