What day of the week should we be aiming at?

Hi all, I was pondering to start a regular Osmocom meeting (monthly or bi-weekly) in Berlin. The idea would be not only to converge the existing developers in Berlin (zecke, roh, prom, tobias, peter, kevin, myself, ...) but to also try to share some knowledge and excitement with other interested hackers in the wider community. A split format for the event might make sense:  Have a more or less organized 45min talk about one particular topic + 15min discussion and then switch to an informal meeting style without any particular topic or moderator. For the first half there is a long list of topics intended at informing people about the status and capabilities of the respective projects: OsmocomBB, OsmoTETRA, OsmoGMR, SIMtrace, etc. Regarding the venue, I would suggest to hold it at the Berlin CCC. What do you generally think about this? What day of the week should we be aiming at?  Tuesday and Thursday is generally not a good idea, as those are already occupied with other events. If you think it's a good idea, I would request/register the event with the CCC Berlin.
