I too heard a rumour that they might not bother, and will try and
find the link I read it at. I know Bloomsbury did not have anything
on their site last time I checked.
Perhaps they feel there no longer the need to make the kind of
changes mentioned a long time ago in previous posts of a bygone
age.......
After all canon is now so well established and so widely read that it
is possibly (?) not worth the effort. I was always suprised that
Scolastic worried people would not know about philosopher's stones in
the U.S. anyway. Children and those who read regularly take odd
words in their stride and find out about them later.
