Kneasy:
Neville will survive I think. Though once he breaks free of Gran the
WW had better watch out. He'll be making up for lost  time. Can't make
up my mind if he'll end up  as the greatest  herbologist of the age or
as Mundungus Fletchers' apprentice.

I dont think so.....
IMHO the end of book 1 foreshadows book 7 -- it was Neville 
in Book 1 that DD saved for last for praise "in standing up 
to his friends", 
something DD admitted to not being able to do in OOP because
of his love for Harry.
In addition, it is not an accident that Trelawney repeats the
prophecy twice as she hasd done before in POA, implying that 
Neville as well as Harry will play a part in LV's demise,

and so it just might come to this .........

Neville's wizarding skills continue to develop...
Harry finally confronts Voldemort in book 7 and Voldemort 
loses his own body (he never learns, does he?) and occupies 
Harry's body so that Harry is now Harry!mort. Harry!mort 
is in conflict as neither can  live while the other survives...
But there is a resolution! Only Neville can "stand up to his
friend" and fight him, just like he tried to do in Book 1, 
and thus "defeat Harry!mort" to fulfill the prophecy in
killing Voldemort's spirit just as Harry had fulfilled the
prophecy in killing Voldemort's body. As to  which of Harry 
and Neville survive, I can only guess, but as Neville 
ultimately failed in book 1, i assume that he does not 
survive, and Harry is restored. Neville's courage  is 
recognized posthumously, as a bittersweet ending to
the series.
I have reasons to strongly support this scenario which I 
will gladly explain if anyone is curious enough to try to
demonstrate by canon as opposed to "You're an idiot for 
thinking that!" why the above scenario will not happen  
(especially Kneasy...) 

I also believe that there will not be massive carnage as
some expect because that does not follow from canon, nor
does it follow from my readings of any of the the writer(s) 
that JKR was influenced by.
