Comments on the pace of the discussion, the organization, or other ideas to implement in this or the next discussion. Also, while I'm thinking of it, is there any interest for a discussion of (some of) Rowling's HP-related works outside the main series (to wit: The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages, plus one online-published (extremely) short story starring a young Sirius and James)? If so, which ones, and in what format?
