Good idea, but ones a month is to frequent, people will get tired of testing new versions that they can't see any difference between. I think it has to be focust releases where something actually can be tested or seen, a feature not just read about in a change-log, everyone doesn't read the changelog. 

By the way, to be able to get people test the right thing when a new versin is released, we should have a welcome-screen packed with information about things changed since last release and so forth, this in a way that people can know how to test the new feature. This welcome screen could be a page in the WIKI so every developer easy can add what they want the testers to try out and how to do it. I know this opens for another problem, we need a browser to do that, can we add the mozilla-com plugin to the release? Or can we include another one?
