What the what?!?

Wow. Does this mean it's time for a new petition? Would Disney actually listen? I mean, they have a pretty notorious history of their own when it comes to revision of their films...

Also, what does this mean for the preservation/fan edit community? Lucasfilm has always been quite kind by generally ignoring us & letting us carry on with our little projects... I've always heard Disney is pretty hardcore about copyright infringement. Of course, that doesn't stop them from stealing other people's work (see Kimba the Lion).

I don't know whether to be happy Lucas is finally giving up control or upset that Disney is taking over.
