I think that when he gets some time to really think about things, he'll release the OT on DVD. If there's one thing he is, he's very clever at marketing. I think he's just waiting and waiting for demand to build up, and he has no need to release it now, with his prequels. He needs a way to make money later on (despite the millions he has already).
OK so basically, this was his plans:
1977- Release Star Wars. Get a whole bunch of money.
1980 - Re-relase Star Wars so that people can watch it before watching ESB. Add "A New Hope" to the title.
1980s/1990s - Release it in video, get some more money.
1997- Re-re-release it on theaters. Change some random stuff to justify the re-re-release. Make sure Greedo shoots first this time.
2004- Wait until the fans can't wait no more for the DVD. Change some more stuff in order to create a hype, and released it. Get some more money from it.
2006?- Release a TV show. Remember: plot matters not! Make sure Kevin Smith is as far away from the project as possible, he could accidently make it good. Good TV shows are NOT profitable, because only inteligent people watch good TV shows, and inteligent people don't go on buying everything they see on the ads.
2007?- Re-re-re-relase the OTs and the PTs in 3D. Make sure you have a pseudo-director backing up this dated, ridiculously insane idea; a director like James Cameron would be nice.
