I disagree. With the exception of a few slips in book one (esp. at 
the first quiddich match, where the third person describes the match 
from Ron's and Hermione's point of view), the entire series is 
written from from Harry's point of view. Yes it is third person, but 
definitely not all-knowing. The third person narrates what Harry 
sees, and makes observations consistent with what Harry knows and has 
seen.

As for this discussion, I am with the people that don't think Snape 
knew much at all about the ending of PoA. Yes he heard some of the 
conversation at the shrieking shack but when he heard it he didn't 
believe it, and I see no reason to believe that he was filled in on 
the truth afterwards. Dumbledore, as we have seen on countless 
occasions, keeps his cards very close to his chest.
