JKR has updated her FAQ on her site by answering the question whether 
Tom Riddle is the half blood prince, (www.jkrowling.com). She also 
answers the question of whether Author Weasly will be MOM and another 
question regarding full bloods, half bloods and mudbloods.

She is very specific regarding the link between books 2 and 6, so now 
I am leaning towards the Hagrid theory as HBP, as to what Harry 
discovers in book 2. The diary was also a major discovery, but if Tom 
Riddle is NOT the HBP, then the Aragon/Hagrid story is (I am 
guessing) the story that will develop in Book 6.
