Ok, I should be able to upload project files for the 1993 mixes tomorrow as well as the ducked mixes to go with the commentary tracks, that is if Hurricane Isaac doesn't knock out my power/internet connection.  

Additionally, I plan to update the archive due to an oversight on my part regarding the Japanese "Faces" discs.  I actually have three versions of the DC set, the first US pressing that's missing the Leia welding scene, the second US edition with the corrected Leia welding scene, and the first Japanese edition.  Anyway, I chose to include the Japanese version of the DC set because I wanted to make sure that I included the Leia welding scene, and my US second pressing has laser rot and I couldn't get an accurate recording of the audio for ESB.  

When comparing the Japanese and US versions of the "Faces" set, I noticed that the Japanese set synced up exactly with the DC, while the US version did not.  I thought this would make editing and synchronization easier.  However I noticed this week, while syncing these mixes, that the Japanese "Faces" set uses the exact same audio as the DC set, meaning that there is missing audio everywhere the DC had a side change.  The US "Faces" set does not have these blank spots, so it is preferable.  

I'm not sure if I should upload these separately to myspleen or delete the original torrent and repost the updated version.  In the later scenario, only the new files would need to be downloaded, as all the other files would remain unchanged.

Any opinions on this?
