Well, I would suggest a rolling schedule, to catch all the time zones. i.e. 
weekdays, my availability is ~2200GMT-0300GMT. Weekends, ~1700-2200GMT. Subject 
to change, of course, and also to other annoying computer users in the house 
;). But anyway, my restrictive times wouldn't catch everyone, whom I presume 
may also have restrictions. So a rolling schedule...

BTW, this week I'm off, except I work Mon, Wed, Thu (GMT-0600 of course) 
evenings. Well, late night on Thu, anyway.

Also, while you may not fix, some1 has to announce? ;)
