This is just a guess, but I wonder if they release the OOT on BluRay for Christmas of 2015 to coincide with the release of Episode 7?  This movie is made for the OOT generation, so what better time to release the OOT?

 I'm thinking the 40th anniversary is the most likely time. And in all likelihood, it will be a Fox release with no contribution from Disney, sort of like their way of saying "screw you" to Lucas for selling Star Wars to Disney. I also think it's likely that it will only be included in an expensive box set, possibly including the PT and the most recent cuts of the films. 

Waiting until after Episode VII to re-release IV-VI seems unlikely to me, anniversary or not. I'd think Disney would probably work out a deal with Fox to get the 3D versions in theaters September/October of 2015 before putting out a blu-ray with all versions on it in December to coincide with Episode VII.
