UPDATE - 3/2@7:40PM: get the latest news regarding the DVD reissues here.

Power Windows reports that Geddy Lee was interviewed by Dutch Heavy Metal magazine Aardschok for their March 2006 issue and had some interesting things to say about upcoming DVD reissues and R30. From the interview:

... Alex Lifeson has made [the DVD reissues] his personal project. Some of it will be the recordings we just discussed, but we have other things in the vault as well, such as a concert that we recorded on the Test For Echo tour, with which we weren't satisfied at the time, but that's been replaced by its historical value ... The lion's share will come out in 2006 ... Some of the songs were dropped from R30 due to technical reasons but also we didn't want to have too many similarities with Rush In Rio. Why not? Well, I think now that it was a dumb decision of ours. In fact I regret not having put the whole show on those disks. But I promise you, all those songs that were cut will eventually see the light of day, in some shape or form. ...

Good news.
