Apparently, after a flurry of rumors, statements from the author, and letters from lawyers in July 2007, there's an update on what J. K. Rowling herself intends to with the universe she is reluctant to work in and reluctant to leave. An official Encyclopedia may be on the way. This seems a little hard on fans who assembled their own and/or maintained websites that Rowling herself says she used. But Potter tie-ins are valuable property.
