Simce there's three different SEs, there's no "SE generation". Everyone grew up with a different SE.

This is exactly why they should take the Blade Runner approach to the blu-ray set and have the final 2015 version on the first disc, the '97 on the second and the OOT on the third. A lot of people hate some of the changes made in '04 (Hayden) and '11 (Noooooooo!), but are okay with the '97 version. Since most if not all of the '04/'11 changes would presumably be carried over to the 2015 version (even if they had to redo all of them because of the new scan), it would be nice to include the '97 version as an option.

What we'll probably get is a blu-ray equivalent of the '06 individual dvd sets, the big difference is that they'll be new transfers for both versions instead of recycled ones. Maybe they'll simplify it even more and we'll simply get a three-disc set that's just the restored OOT and nothing more, maybe with a few little extras sprinkled across the discs.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Sure, but I'd be shocked more if they do a new SE than I would if they released the Holiday Special. They will not waste money making another SE when no one likes the SE in the first place. Even people who like the SE had grown tired of the endless changes with each release. I know the blu ray sold well, but there was huge backlash regarding the stupidity that was added to the films in that release.
