* Harry will return to the home of his non-magical (Muggle) relatives, the Dursleys (whose cooperation has been requested by Albus Dumbledore), during the school holiday. The magical protection Dumbledore arranged, which requires Harry to have a home with them, is set to expire when Harry comes of age (see below).HBP Ch.4

* Harry plans to visit the remains of his parents' home at Godric's Hollow. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger plan on accompanying him on this trip.HBP Ch.30

* Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour plan on getting married in August. Several of the main characters have been invited.HBP Ch.30

* It is unclear what will happen to Hogwarts after the attack on the school at the end of book 6, but Harry has said he will leave school to continue his battle against Voldemort. If the school reopens, new instructors will be needed for Defence Against the Dark Arts (replacing Severus Snape), and possibly Transfiguration in the event Minerva McGonagall becomes Headmistress.HBP Ch.29 HBP Ch.30

* Harry comes of age (for wizards) when he turns 17 on July 31, and is therefore allowed to perform magic outside of school and to obtain a licence to Apparate. His friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, and many of his classmates, already turned 17 during the sixth year, and Neville Longbottom turns 17 on July 30 - the day before Harry.[17]Because of this, it is revealed that if Voldemort had gone for Neville instead of Harry and one of Neville's parents had sacrificed their life for him, he would be the "boy who lived."[HP5]

* Harry must destroy all of Voldemort's Horcruxes before Voldemort can be killed. Dumbledore believed there were six, and that two so far have been destroyed.HBP Ch.23

* There is no explanation at the end of Half-Blood Prince as to the true identity of the mysterious "R.A.B.", who claimed to have stolen one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, a locket, with the intent to destroy it, while replacing it with a fake locket, later recovered by Harry and Dumbledore.HBP Ch.28 The most likely candidate is Regulus Black, who Rowling said was "a fine guess" for R.A.B.'s identity in an interview.[18] This theory is supported by the fact that translations of R.A.B. consistently correspond to the Black name. Also, when cleaning out the cupboards in 12 Grimmauld Place, Harry and the others find a heavy locket that they are unable to open.[HP5]

* Because Harry convinced Remus Lupin and Sirius Black to spare Peter Pettigrew's life in book 3, Pettigrew owes Harry a life debt.[HP3] There was no indication in books 3-6 that this debt had been repaid.

Transfiguration in the event Minerva McGonagall becomes Headmistress.HBP Ch.29 HBP Ch.30

any info when this book would come out?

Hmmm...I wonder who will be the new Co-Headmaster. I bet it will be Rubeus Hagrid. Wouldn't that seem sort of....natural? I mean, he is obviously starting to mature from the first book to the sixth book. We can see how he sort of starts off as the typical "groundskeeper," and the staff just sort of put that on him. In the sixth book when McGonagall becomes Headmistress, she asks Hagrid for his opinion on closing the school. She said that she respects his opinions because Dumbledore did. We can see how Hagrid is starting to play an important role to the staff of Hogwarts. I don't know what the rest of you are thinking, but I bet he might as well become the next Co-Headmaster. Any thoughts?
