I read an article from the new york times regarding Lucas retirement around the release of red tails and he seems to reference Adywan's edit without even mentioning by name.

“On the Internet, all those same guys that are complaining I made a change are completely changing the movie,” Lucas says, referring to fans who, like the dreaded studios, have done their own forcible re-edits. “I’m saying: ‘Fine. But my movie, with my name on it, that says I did it, needs to be the way I want it.’ ”
