This is a really interesting excerpt from the upcoming "Making of Return of the Jedi" book.

Interesting to just how different his plans were back then. It also destroys the argument of the prequel fans that they were planned out that way all along ( i bet they're going to love that ;) ). 

So to summarise;

Yoda doesn't fight. He is more of a teacher.

NO MIDICHLORIANS

Jedi can love and marry.

ANYONE can learn to use the force if they are prepared to learn.

Luke & Leia's mother was still alive until they were 2 years old

So they would have originally fit in pretty well with the OT.

 Should of stuck to it.

 Amen.  Too bad Lucas decided he wanted to change it all around just to spite Gary Kurtz for turning the Star Wars films into good movies instead of the garbage Lucas wanted.  And we all see how that turned out when Lucas got his way finally with the Special Editions and Prequels :(
