I'm sure Mugglenet has one somewhere on their site.
And I found that JKR did answer a lot of the questions she said she would...
I found this: (My answers are in bold)
* What are the first names of Flitwick, Sinistra, Vector, Sprout, and Hooch? What houses were they in? not answered comepletely
* If a teacher is head of a house, can we assume that they were sorted into those houses when they were students at Hogwarts? Is that also true for the house ghosts? So was Snape a Slytherin? yes, yes, and we knew that.
* Who teaches Ancient Runes and Muggle Studies and are there other teachers or subjects that we haven't heard about yet? Muggle Studies was answered
* What is Godric's Hollow? Is is a town, a house, a street, a tree...? a town...
* Were Gideon and Fabian Prewett Molly's brothers? yes.
* On your website, you used the term "marauders" to refer to James and his friends. Were they actually called that or are you just borrowing the fan term? they called themselves that * What are
( ... )
I'm almost positive Jo said something about finding out some of the teachers were married.
We didn't see why Ginny was supposed to be so powerful, in my opinion.
I thought there'd be more about Lily's eyes than the fact Snape liked them, and about Petunia. The hype didn't match the build up as far as I'm concerned on those things.
I don't have links, because I don't remember where I saw these...
But she said we'd see some pretty impressive stuff from Ginny (Seventh child or the seventh family or some shit like that) - what that impressive stuff was supposed to be I'm still trying to guess.
She also said Ravenclaw would have its day - which I assume could have been in reference to the Rowena's daughter bits... But when you say someone will have their day, that isn't exactly what comes to mind, yo!
She also said that Hermione would see herself in the mirror from book one entwined with someone - the reason I remember this one is because Mugglenet went ahead and said Ron, then had to go back and change it.
Maybe the impressive stuff from Ginny is that she offered her body to Harry for his birthday smashed the case with the sword? I dunno. I got the feeling that sections of the book had been left out, and I mean, the original page count was 784, and my book is 759, so what happened to those 25 pages?
Leftover pages are unnumbered pages with info of any sort and blanks left over from folding. Every printer sheet of paper is folded I think to yeald 16 recto and verso pages. Not every book can be that precise as to page count so there are some left over, but still counted in the printer's account. I think. Someone who has worked in publishing can probably be precise.
Probbo is that all the things that were answered were known since day one (or book four). All the things that were supposed ot be explained weren't. Not that what an author who's notorious for faffing about her books in interviews says can be taken seriously. JKR has a public persona who loves to leave red herrings, after all.

There's the entry. Most of those were answered.
