Swingers 2-Disc Special Edition available in Region 2

On June 6th, the Swingers 2-Disc Special Edition will be available in Region 2 (UK).

This website has an annoyingly wishy-washy synopsis of the movie, but lists features that will be included on the DVD:

The disc will feature an 1.85:1 Aspect Ratio. Extra features are to include;
Audio commentary from Doug Liman and editor, Stepen Mirrione
Audio commentary from Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau
Making It Hollywood, 4 featurettes covering the writers, the making of Swingers, Swingers culture and life after Swingers
Outtakes
Deleted scenes

It would be cool if the special edition will finally be available in the UK. Just one problem -we're region 1 not 2! I'm confused

I'm really not very DVD-region savvy, but this is the info I found:

REGION 1 -- USA, Canada
REGION 2 -- Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East, Greenland
REGION 3 -- S.Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Parts of South East Asia
REGION 4 -- Australia, New Zealand, Latin America (including Mexico)
REGION 5 -- Eastern Europe, Russia, India, Africa
REGION 6 -- China
REGION 0 or REGION ALL -- Discs are uncoded and can be played Worldwide, however, PAL discs must be played in a PAL-compatible unit and NTSC discs must be played in an NTSC-compatible unit.

Found it here: http://hometheater.about.com/cs/dvdlaserdisc/a/aaregioncodesa.htm

Can anyone else shed some light on this?
