I have to give Steve Van Ark credit, he's going ahead with the Unofficial Guild to Harry Potter. After losing a court case to Harry Potter author JK Rowling. He has revised the guild not give away ending and added personal commentary, fitting the guild line for copyright laws.
Its a tricky case. The law is not a definitive about reference book. Harry Potter's words is so entrenched in daily life that is would be difficult to decide what is truly JK Rowling and what is public. Also if JK Rowling doesn't fight this she could lose some of her right later.
I hope Mr. Van Ark is able to make some money off of his book. Steve live in West Michigan and runs a Harry Potter web site.
