Everyone will still be entitled to their own canon definition.

I think it's funny these people who will be locked in a room deciding what is and isn't canon are going to be classified as the resident experts. I'd like to know WHO these appointed people are and their credentials for taking on this task. As much as I didn't follow a lot of post-ROTJ stuff, I don't think it should all be excused and written off. I do hope maybe they work on some huge master dated events timeline that gives nods to all the stories that have come and gone somewhere and not just trash it. That would be a slam on all the authors that contributed over the years.
I think we should get a Young Han Solo TV show that basically amounts to a Star-Warsy version of B.J. and the Bear.
The article mentioned Leeland Chee. I expect Pablo Hidalgo to be in there too. At Celebration Europe II last summer, they told us during Leeland Chee's talk that Kennedy had formed a group for Star Wars continuity and that they were going to be on it. That could very well be the group referred to in the article.I'd like to know WHO these appointed people are and their credentials for taking on this task.
I'm sure most people will naturally have their own version, but I do see the need for people writing future stories to have some sort of continuity reference so everyone is on the same page.
I agree, yeah. And with what others said above responding in quote. As long as it's not a bunch of people who don't know what they're looking at and having someone who knows the extended content well that is more hopeful. I keep picturing a Bob and Bob interviewing authors and cutting their work out of the mix like Office Space, haha!
I think they're treading on thin water with this move. They'd be undoing A LOT of people's work. I think there will be a riot though if they terminate the Vhong wars series...
I would suggest you grossly exaggerate the size of that constituency.
