Jean:
He didn't say anything, perhaps for the same reason that Hermione
didn't say about the Time Turners... plot development ;) Perhaps we
could turn this on its head a little, and ask, what would have
happened if Lupin had told Dumbledore about Sirius' Animagus and the
Maruader's Map? Dumbledore would have known about the passages and
how Sirius was getting in, and the story would have been completely
different and not lasted a whole year! :)
