Annemehr:
Going on the theory that stuff revealed on Jo's site is fair game here
just as her interviews are, and that includes the background minutia...

I think the diagram is something like a flow chart, for keeping plot
lines straight. Remember not so long ago, she said writing the sixth
book was going well, and that she was still at the stage where she had
charts propped up to keep track of stuff like which clues had to be
dropped into which innocent-looking chapters?  This looks like Harry
and Hermione are telling Ron some stuff, maybe.

The next question, of course, is "which book?" It looks like it could
be PoA, if Sirius and Pettigrew are on there -- though if that one
name is "Pettigrew," it must be abbreviated.  Looks more like
"Potter," but if it is, it must be a grandparent or something...

Come to think of it, though, it just might really *be* rubbish -- it's
tucked just under that rough draft of the welcome message with the
words crossed out.
