Info Wanted: Preservation and Fan Edit options - and a review thread?

If there is already a thread like this I’m sorry. This whole “Preservation and Fan Edit” section is a bit mind boggling to me now days. It seems like everyone and their brother are doing some sort of project. I remember back when we only had two possible options for a good copy of the OT (Dr. Gonzo and TR47). Now it’s a bit crazy with all the great options. And I do mean great. It seems like with each new generation of discs the quality just keeps getting better.

I know that there are a few great threads about what is going on with the current projects and that is awesome to find such community support. My question is what if there was a section where you can get reviews of all the currently finished and available projects? I’m sure more than a few people would like to know which set is currently the best quality OT, PT, or Fan Edit.

Now before this post become a pissing contest about who’s set is better I was wondering if we could get an impartial person to step up and take a look at the majority of the sets. Kind of like a Roger Ebert of Star Wars preservation.

Perhaps if we find someone to do that we could start a new thread where only the reviews for each set could reside. Not to discourage community involvement with those reviews but if we don’t have any replies in that sections we would very quickly end up with a single area where people could come and make educated decisions about which set of discs is right for them.

Perhaps I’m just too damn idealistic but I think it could be a great addition to this forum. For all I know there could be a website with this very information already on it?
