Oh, that's what's happened in the past 13 months - both on this list and in other forums like FictionAlley's continuing ship debate thread. But like the actual quote from jkr about harry and hermione being very platonic friends, which she said in a pre-GoF interview and which r/h shippers tend to take as perpetual and h/h shippers tend to take as focused on GoF specifically, it's all about context and we, the fans, won't know the right answer until the end of book 7.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I read that.  Though, taken in context with
the two preceding paragraphs... well, let's say things are looking  better
for H/H shippers.

I could see H/H people using it as their banner, all the while the R/H
people will yell "It wasn't a direct quote!".

Heh.

(who thinks that Hermione WILL end up with Harry, if not just because it
sets the stage perfectly for Ron's betrayal of Harry, followed by his
subsequent redemption when he sacrifices his life to save Harry's.  Or is
that too obvious?)
