I'm with Peg on this - and I cannot BELIEVE that there hasn't been 
ANY press on this issue as yet. I mean, there was an article on 
Reuters about the release of the book in france & the fact that JKR's 
writing book 5 - but since the France version just came out, can 
anyone why reads French get a copy of it & let us know who comes out 
first in that version? (and whether they have any "dialect" for Fleur 
or Maxime - on that, I'm also curious!). 
I also went back & checked my Limited Edition copy of GoF - I have a 
first edition of that (it's the purple thing with the gold-edged 
pages) and it has James first, then Lily (i.e. the original order) - 
I wonder why they didn't do it "correctly" in that - they should've 
been able to (or at least it sounds like they knew about it well 
before the Limited Edition was released in October - why didn't they 
just destroy all the copies they'd printed of the Limited Edition & 
do it "right"?
