Puggo, I just wanted to say that I'm extremely excited about this project. I have a feeling that the audio/video presentation of the Puggo Grande will be the most personal-feeling of any Star Wars video release and will likely be the one I choose to watch anytime I'm in a Star Wars '77 mood.
I was wondering if you've looked into any resizing methods for converting the full-frame anamorphic print down to letterboxed anamorphic dvd video. There are plenty of high quality options out there, but I would personally recommend Spline36Resize in Avisynth as the best for downsizing. It retains detail beautifully and tends to produce an accurate, sharp image without using artificial sharpening.
