A logistical Potter question

[nancylebov]

Without going into any spoilerish details, I'll note that Rowling has set up a lot of story that'll have to be covered in the last book. Which would you rather have--a really long wait till book 7, or an announcement that it's just 2 or 3 three years till 7, but there's gonna be a book 8?

I'd settle for her breaking her initial determination to hold to seven books. If she settled half the questions of book 6, and left room for book 8, sure, why not?
