Potioncat:
If the death of the SK breaks the Fidelius Charm then it casts a 
different light on Peter. His death would have accomplished nothing. 

Back to the question from the discussion, I think the Order continued 
using 12 GP because they had made a temporary move. Like many of you 
have asked, does DD's death end the charm? Did he have the foresight 
to "upgrade" the charm with a different SK? Bill knows a lot about 
casting and breaking charms. Who else?

If the charm is broken, and Snape is camped out at Hotel Voldy, will 
he tell LV where HQ is?
