Just an FYI about IRC, there are plenty of people who don't participate in the community meetings because it is on IRC too. Not that I'm lobbying at this time to change the format (as I've already addressed) but I think IRC is a big leap for many people (despite how incredibly easy and straight-forward it seems to all you developers out there!) Every group is going to have a different level of comfort with different communciation methods.
It is true that a WebEx style meeting might reach the broadest range of community members. Maybe Skype or Google HangOut too.
