I like the one week a month idea, but taking it further, I propose Casual Weekends. Any raid mob that spawns on the weekend is left up for casuals. Casuals probably don't want to raid or track during the week anyway. That comes to 8-10 days per month, so that's slightly more than the 1 week a month proposition. Could even make it just the first 3 weekends or just Casual Sundays (4-5 days a month) if hardcores don't want to make an 8-10 day concession.
Then it's just a matter of claiming what your guild is, if it's casual or if it's hardcore. Everyone who wants a rotation can do it on the weekends when they're more likely to play anyway. And the hardcores can still do their 4am Tuesday morning batphone races. We can make the rule if you kill a mob during the week, you're excluded from the weekend and vice-versa.
Could even switch the Sky Rotation around to accomodate this too, give the hard cores their choice of weekend slots, so that they're still raiding those days. Also, I'd leave VP out of the concessions.
