Nobody panic (or celebrate, for that matter).  Steve Kloves is already writing the script for GoF as we speak.  According to either David Heyman or Chris Columbus (I always get mixed up who says what between those two, though I do know the difference).  I would think he'd get the script done for GoF then take a few months off of HP to work on this other thing.  Then either return to write the script for OOP or they'll hire someone else.  Which is doubtful, considering how much JKR trusts him with her "baby."  He could begin half way through filming of GoF and still have time to finish it up.
