Legend
It's not in "limbo", they rebooted it in 2014 and created a complete separate canon for the new Disney materials.Second, any Star Wars RPG is all about the EU, and the EU is kind of a mess right now. There's a lot of material that is essentially in limbo. WEG had a lot of free reign to build the EU (lot of people don't realize how much of the EU came from the game). I can't pretend to have industry knowledge, but I imagine FFG has a lot less freedom. Even doing something as simple as a Mos Eisley splat book would become a game of "Whose history is canon now? What am I allowed to reference?"
You've got the original pre-2014 canon of Star Wars, that LFL now brands as "Legends", and the post-2014 canon they brand as "Canon" that includes the controversial sequels.
It's not a matter of "whose history is canon now", it's more a matter of which of the two existing canons are you going to use? The fact that the two are largely incompatible in a lot of ways means that most adventures, plotlines, and character backgrounds not closely tied to one of the 6 films will not fit into both canons.
The Star Wars RPG fanbase has been running ongoing campaigns for years, decades in some cases, before Disney, and weren't about to throw out campaigns and vast amounts of setting knowledge because they made a marketing decision one day to reboot Star Wars and only keep the 6 films and the (highly controversial in many parts of the fan base) TCW series.
