I am of the MDDT, and thus this question is aimed my way, but in this 
case I don't think the answer will really be that much related to MD at 
all. Let's examine the quote: Dumbledore wants to tell Harry everything 
he should've told him five years back. What did Harry want to know that 
Dumbledore didn't tell him back in book 1? The reason for his parents' 
death, of course. And I do believe that that is what Dumbledore is 
going to reveal. Besides, it ties quite nicely with one of JKR's 
promises for book 5: to learn more about Harry's parents.

How does this relate to Magic Dishwasher? Not much: MD has not even 
tried to guess what that reason is. I've difidently proposed a couple 
of possibilities, but apart from "they were involved in Dumbledore's 
plans and Voldemort didn't want them to" MD doesn't really go into 
detail. After all, MD really starts *after* their deaths - before that, 
Dumbledore had plans that were not related in any way to the current 
situation so, unless he deliberately planned Voldemort's attack, 
whatever the plans were they were probably scratched after Voldemort 
got himself almost oblitarated. And, before you ask, no, I don't think 
Dumbledore used the Potters as bait and NO, MD does NOT propose a Nigro 
(black) Dumbledore.

Hope that helps,

Grey Wolf, who is back from his extended "vacation", and has much to 
discuss - and a lot of stress to burn
