Steve & I discussed doing just such a list. Mostly, words which mean 
one thing in UK and another in US, are the difference. Words such as 
bangs (US) and fringe (UK) or sweater (US) and jumper (UK).

There are, however, a few places where JKR has changed a word or 
added/deleted a sentence. These have been discussed at various times 
here on the list.

I do not know if there is another website which lists the differences.
