Possibility that this fiction concludes year one, with Harry and Voldemort still alive, and a second book picks up with year two?

What would a 'second book' be? A full-blown official sequel? (Without a resolution of the plot, I'd wonder if it really makes sense to dub any division the end of 'book 1' and the start of 'book 2'.) Might be better to predict about sequels in general.

I was thinking a full blown sequel, where part of voldie's plan is revealed, but not near all of it- we resolve the issues surrounding the stone, and perhaps gain some clearer insight into what dumbledore's motivation is, but the war is still on.
