Every time i see this thread i laugh. Only because there is no EU its gone.

Everything is now one continuity. Special editions, prequels, clone wars, rebels, sequel trilogy and whatever else they do in the new marvel comics etc and Del Rey.

The Legends title is for all the stuff that you used to either love or hate but is now gone forever.

The oot has itself been out of canon since 2000 or so when they stopped calling the special edition, the special edition. But Lucas probably planned to bury it as far back as 1994.

Whether it is restored to canon status and the sequel trilogy is a sequel to the true original trilogy remains to be seen.
