And no, he seemed to be a little rushed and somewhat avoided talking about the other non ANH films.  The impression I got based solely on the way he was talking (again, this was a private conversation after the presentation) was that the people at Disney are interested in doing it, and that it's really FOX holding them back, which doesn't surprise me, since their track record on intensive restoration of ANY film isn't the greatest.  Seems like something they don't want to spend money on, but you never know.  Who knows; the man may have been insinuating that they were in the middle of negotiations with FOX, and that it was up to their final decision whether they can go forward with it or not.  There's tons of speculation that come out of what he said, but the main thing I'm taking out of it is that it seems to shoot down the rumors that GL included in the contract when Disney bought Lucasfilm that the original versions can never be released.
