FYI: The interview that Meredith Viera did with JK Rowling will be on the Today show tomorrow and Friday. It was during that interview that we learned who got the reprieve.

I saw the interview this morning, but my baby started cooing a little too loudly just as JK was saying what Harry, Ron and Hermione are all doing. I think (hope?) I heard her say Harry and Ron headed up the Auror's office, and Hermione was doing something with magical law. Did anyone see the interview?
Like ZTABullwinkle mentioned, the interview continues tomorrow morning (it started this morning around 7:30, so I'm hoping it will be around the same time again tomorrow). Then, there is a one hour special on Dateline(?) Sunday night at 7pm.
Oh, and about the names... I think someone said earlier that Rose might be a tribute to Harry's mom (sticking with the flower theme). I like that idea; then again, I'm pretty sure Pansy Parkinson wasn't named in similar honor, so who knows.

There's a video posted with the interview. I'll definitely have to try and catch the rest of the interview tomorrow.
You know, I'd love to know what happens to the Malfoys. I mean, we hate them through the entire series, but when Voldemort starts using Draco as a puppet, a bit of humanity seems to shine through, even with Lucius. I feel like one of Rowling's strongest messages was that a mother's love is stronger than anything.
