Meri:
I am paraphrasing, but DD said that as long as Harry can call Privet 
Drive home and return there at least once a year, he will still be 
protected there. This is, also if I am interpreting things 
correctly, conditional on Aunt Petunia (and possibly Dudley) staying 
alive. JKR said that Harry is looking at his shortest stay on Privet 
Drive in book six...

Bookworm:
Just a stray thought here – could this be his shortest stay on 
Privet Drive because something happens to Petunia `this'
summer and Harry loses that protection? Or will JKR keep Petunia 
around until book 7?

Thoughts?
