Cease & Desist

The problem i see with that is the old cliche, 'To many cooks spoil the broth'

If everyone has a say in it (or access to it to give their opinion) they a) wont necessarily make decisions that are best for the overall project/restoration and that b) just flat out dont know what the scene really should look like. I may think that R2 is too blue in one scene, or the scene is too dark when in fact it could be a 100% perfect representation of how it should be, its just not how i remember it. They've stated that they have other sources to reference to get the colors and saturation back to (or very close to) the correct balance. And from what they have shown us so far I dont think they really need more input, especially since that will just cause them to have to sift through countless emails/pms just to get the maybe 1 or 2 a day that are actually worth anything. There are other people on this board that can probably offer useful opinions such as those doing their own restorations (as im sure there are others) but they know who most of these people that can be
of actual help are and are more than capable of contacting them for their opinions if they decide they need to.

plus the size of the raw capture would be to large for most people, so they would have to at least compress that down to a dvd.

not saying that you personally wouldnt offer valuable input, or that no one would. And I by no means am speaking for the X0 team. This is just my 2 cents/opinion on what I would do if i were in their shoes.
