The thing that was offputting in that io9 interview, is that the makers chose to highlight this particular trivial adywan amendment in the first place....rather than any of the more obviously appreciated ones that addressed some of the more dubious/controversial SE 'creative choices' that GL made!
Such as making Han shoot Greedo first once again for instance, along with improving the shoddy colour and sound treatment of the 2004 dvd release, never mind fixing numerous continuity and optical mistakes that went untouched before, that many fans would have been delighted to see attended to.
Now THOSE, I would have preferred to have been acknowledged.
At least the site itself (which is a good one), embedded a decent example of adywan's amazing efforts, thankfully.
