Anyone else looking forward to this?

The album will mostly consist of Division Bell-sessions from 1994 apparently, so not "new", but highly interesting nevertheless.

Oh, absolutely. This will be a major highlight.

Disclaimer: I'm in a bit of a grumpy mood.

At one time, the Floydian policy towards such things was "If it wasn't good enough to release then, what makes it good enough to release now?
If they are going to reverse this policy, then no one would be happier than I.
However, there are certainly things already in the "vaults" that the PF Enthusiast would rather have first. Noodlings from the 1994 sessions are very welcome--yes, but it would probably have been better served to release them as an accompaniment to the new anniversary edition rather than an album in it's own right.

One other thought: If they wanted it to be a part of the core collection (and a fitting tribute-style conclusion to Wright's contributions) then it wouldn't be out of place to suggest that Waters ought to contribute new bass lines.

(At the end of the day, though, any Floyd is better than no Floyd.)

ETA: After posting, I took a gander at the Wiki entry. It seems I'm not the only one with such thoughts regarding Waters' non-appearance. Great minds think alike, and all that.
