Someone's getting a lot of website hits for posting that info from a "source".
Their claim of credibility is that they predicted 3D conversions of the saga and financing of a new movie trilogy 3 years ago. I've thought the same things for years, that eventually Lucas would finance a new set of movies but hand off the writing and directing primarily to other people.
It could all very well be true, but at this point it's just unconfirmed rumors.
