I totally agree. Doing the project in smaller steps is the best way to go.

Zion [X0 project team] only released a raw capture from ANH so far. If I remember correct Zion didn't even get the complete ROTJ capture from MeBeJedi, missing one Laserdisc side.

The community is still missing:

X0 - raw capture of Definitive Collection Ep5 & Ep6
X0 - raw capture of JSC trilogy
X0 - raw capture of supplemental material (1993, 1995, 1997, 2000)
X0 - raw capture of 'from starwars to jedi'

raw capture means uncompressed video (codecs like huffyuv), audio can be supplied by others if necessary.

There are so few that have access to this outstanding player, even fewer having the knowledge how to capture laserdiscs with it.

If you release the raw capture, others can jump in and sync digital audio to them, make uncompressed 24fps progressive masters and rerelease them for the next masering step, which would be cleanup...

What capture card are you using?
