Just learnt that in the new Muppet Movie "Muppet Studios" is actually the Henson Company Lot.
I've never been entirely clear on how the current situation works, beyond the fact Henson productions can no longer use the word "Muppet" (the Fraggles used to be Muppets, and now they aren't), but this does suggest that there is still some sort of relationship between the Jim Henson Company and Disney's Muppets. Which is nice.
(And now I think of it, of course there would be, since there're still long-time Muppeteers like Dave Goelz -- who's pencilled in to reprise Boober in the upcoming Fraggle Rock movie.)
