Very good idea. But the ultimate authority on that would have to be Trooperman. It's probably time to start looking at this as a piece of a six-part saga, instead of an isolated thing. Because, as it has happened with other edits (like Darth Editous' ANH) as soon as everyone has SOTDS, they'll be clamouring for more. And you don't want to paint yourself into a corner, do you, TM?

Just as a thought, if this is going to become a complete trilogy redo, someone might want to start taking notes to put together a "bible" of sorts for the new universe that's being created so good ideas don't become impossible because of other changes. A basic timeline of events and possible shots used to represent them perhaps.

Oh of course, I agree completely! But better to start ahead of time befoere the ideas become lost. That way if TM (or even someone else completely if he gets burned out and wants to pass it off) wants to work on further edits in this vein, the info is there to provide a cohesive vision. The lack of any cohesive vision is one of the things that most of us found bothersome about the PT. While Trooperman works out the details of this project, I don't think there's anything wrong with speculating on how his changes would have an effect on what would need to be shown in the other two prequels to make it all come together properly. And if we can keep track of everything now, it becomes easier later. Plan big in case you need it.
Just my opinion though.
That having been said, if SOTDS is the only prequel remade this way, it will still stand head and shoulders above all the others, simply because of the volume of work and the number of changes worked into it. So far this looks to be a tremendous achievement and it's only natural that people will be clamoring for more. Kudos to Trooperman for undertaking such a project, no matter the outcome.
