They don't usually announce them this early (the Finance Minster's Office announces it, and I checked their website and there was no notice of them on there)-- sometimes not until a few days before they start. They usually change a little (I think cigalechanta may be referring to the past dates, in Jan 2005), but usually start between Jan 4th and the 15th and do go a long time, so I think you can be pretty certain they will be going on during your stay.

No, I got the dates for 2006 from the Skyteam site. In 1999 it was declared to be set dates from than on.
