Should/Do Can/Aus have plans for 8 August 2008?

I know it is over a year off.
Seeing as how the 90th of Vimy was so big, I think something should be done for Amiens.
The day that broke the back of the German army.
The Canadians and Australians did an amazing job in one of the most successful battles of the war.
This is bascially the textbook wet dream of a ww1 set piece battle.

So I was wondering if anyone is aware of or has heard of any plans by the Can or Aus government or anyone else?
As well what do people think would be proper to do?
I have looked around a bit but couldnt find anything.
 
Just as a guess, I would expect the "big" WWI event next year will be the 90th anniversary of the Armistice.
Not to say Amiens isn't equally deserving but one could also say similar things about Arras and Cambri. None of them are singular in a sense that Vimy Ridge is.

Just like I'm not expecting anything for the 90th anniversary of PASSCHENDAELE.
