It's not a good idea.
Here in JA, we will have the "All JA Contest" in every last weekend of April.
All JA contest is the domestic contest like SS in the states and we had 2,236
participants(logs) for 2000 contest weekend. All HF bands will be fullfilled
with JA big guns and small pistols between 12UTC Sat. and 12UTC Sunday for 
All JA.

Can you imagin what will happen if WPX CW moves to the same weekend of All JA
contst? Or does anyone plan to move another DX contest in the same weekend 
of SS?

I once or twice passed this information to Steve N8BJQ when WPX CW contest 
date
change was raised.
