To follow the rule of the five year moratorium period starting with Aladdin the schedule should be like this:

- The Jungle book March 2007
-101 Dalmatians October 2007
-Snow White March 2008
-Beauty and the Beast October 2008
-The Lion King March 2009
-Aladdin October 2009 (2004-2009 = FIVE YEARS)

But what will happen to the four new Platinums (Pinocchio, Peter Pan, Slepping Beauty and Fantasia), when they are going to be released ?

I realize other people had to agree for the rule to be put in effect, in the first place. But it would seriously increase customer faith in Disney if they were more consumer-friendly.
Maybe. I think that the whole Moratorium thing should be downplayed, frankly. I think that whilst the whole "preserving the classics for future generations" is a good thing, they should keep a place that will sell them whilst out of print (such as a Disney run website). I'd also have a few classics that are generally less popular out all year round (in special editions, be they 1 disc or 2 disc), but not necessarily the ones that were continuously available on video in the 80s and 90s (Alice in Wonderland, Dumbo, Robin Hood, The Sword in the Stone, The Great Mouse Detective, The Three Caballeros)
