Oops, never mind. Flipping through the cinefex, I see that it's mostly a retropsective on ILM's original work in 76. The only material on the special edition is a brief blurb that it's happening and Lucas giving a very enthusiastic tease about how much better the new digital Jabba is. (interestingly, the topic of a potential resentment/backlash and this being at odds with Lucas being on the board for film preservation comes up and GL considers it totally different, just an artist finishing his painting etc.).

Anyway, very recently some guy in a post at Home Theater Forum claimed the black and white separations weren't done right. He gave no source or explanation, he just said it was "his understanding."  Has anyone heard this before?
