I'm thinking we could plan it for either 2009 or 2010, giving people who don't live out in Japan already a good chance to plan ahead and maybe work a vacation around the meet up, providing anyone is up for it?

Things to consider would be: weather, school schedules (both in terms of the rest of the world and Japan's unique school calendar), how crowded the parks are going to be, the rate calendars for those that might want to stay at a Disney hotel, and special resort events (not really known until a few months in advance, other than that we know that Halloween will be celebrated in a big way Sept-Oct, and Christmas Nov-Dec). Suggestion: the first couple of weeks of April have nice weather, is "back to school" time in Japan (so few family vacations), and have the chance of catching the cherry blossom season.

Originally Posted By Mr X First couple weeks of April is a very good idea, indeed. In fact, perhaps we could plan a seperate, non-Disney meet at Ueno park for cherry blossom viewing and revelry. (that one would have to be flexible, since like SD said it's not always possible to time it perfectly...but the meet could always morph into a "hit the town" meet wherever people want to go in Tokyo)
