Lucas already conceived episodes 7-9 when the original movie came out. The problem was that he never thought he'd end up making more than 3 movies (4-6) so he changed episode 6. In its original form it was "Revenge of the Jedi", where Luke goes and joins his father on the dark side and it's the next generation that saves the galaxy.

They can still do the final 3 installments, but they have to re-do the ending of 6 for it to work.

This is wrong. "Revenge of the Jedi" was a false name for ep6 that was intentionally leaked in an effort to prevent illegal copyright infringements. Lucas stated that real fans would realize that the title was wrong because the Jedi would never seek revenge.

The fact that he crammed lots of stuff from what "would have been 7-9" is not wrong though.
