Mandy here:
I've been reading the whole thread on this and what we all have to 
remember is:

REDHERINGS!!

All in the name of fun, of course.

But don't forget Jo loves to play with us. She wants to keep us 
guessing and in doing so, is going to love feeding us tidbits that 
are as likely to lead us down the wrong path as the right one.  Just 
because she wants to debunk some rumors put out there by others, it 
may not mean that she isn't going to start some of her own.

Didn't she say somewhere that one of her favorite authors was Agather 
Christie? 

I think the site is definitely canon, but is also going to be full of 
trapdoors, red hearings, maguffins and all manner or wonderful 
tricks. I can't wait.

Way to go, Jo!
