I've been following the posts here periodically and maybe we are being a little too skeptical. If the event in Aalen this past week-end can pull that many people from all over Europe I don't see why this can't be a true Roman occasion like we'd all like to see.
If I were trying to put it together I'd contact the major (as in famous) groups from the EU. Germany,France, Italy, Great Britain,etc. Some are RAT members and many read posts here. Those groups no doubt have contacts,too. If we show a real interest in making it happen I believe it will. Some of those guys have influence,too. I would think it not too hard to convince the powers that be for a legitimate historical event on a grand scale.
What if Dan Peterson's dream of seeing Legions in the field were to become a reality? We could all be proud.
Call me naive, but I believe "If you build it,they will come".
