I'm not sure, but I'd bet good money that the Osborn lights will be lit the day after Thanksgiving, if not sooner. We'd also been to WDW several times in December and had never seen the lights until this past December. They perform a total of 4 songs with 5-10 minute breaks between, as soon as it's dark enough. For visitors who come in late August and after, you should be able to see they have started stringing the lights. There are so many lights that they have to start months ahead. They aren't lit, but, well, how often do you see entire buildings strung with inactive Christmas tree lights in the late summer?

I think October's hours were late in being posted too. It could even be possible that Disney is evaluating what fuel prices are going to do to November crowds and they're trying to adjust the hours before they make them public.
