I also rewrote the Warners chat news item.
It's too early to be quite so negative, and I feel I was jumping the gun. It's at least a year+ out before the release, and since it's not scheduled in stone, we still have plenty of opportunity to get the project on the right track.
Stay tuned though, as a sign of fan/audience interest in the restored version and/or a separate disc release is something I feel may be very necessary soon.
