That´s very good news, but no surprise. When the non-anamorphic announcement from Lucasfilm had been made, thedigitalbits already said they knew lots of sources to get original surviving film elements of the OOT, and it would only be a matter of a very short time to get them if needed. Robert Harris said back in May that even a basic restauration could be done while meeting the deadline if they would immediately start with it.

Better would be to inform them about the Laserdisc master situation, and get them to an official statement like: "If LFL have no original copies of the OOT anymore, we would be more than happy to provide them with film elements to make new transfers."
