Well... the popular theory is that they are the "old crowd" set up to fight Voldemort. I guess that they worked to overthrow Voldemort back in the seventies (when he was in power.)

As for the individuals?

Remus Lupin- Everyone's favorite character. He was the friend of James Potter, Sirius Black, and the rest of the group. He was also the DADA teacher in PoA.

Arabella Figg- She took care of Harry when the Dursleys were doing something fun.

Mundungus Fletcher- He was mentioned on page 38 of Chamber of Secrets. He was investigated for having shrinking keys and a biting kettle. He also tried to put a hex on Arthur Weasley... intriguing, don't you think?

Phoenixes- They get reincarnated in a burst of fire. Harry has a feather in his wand, as does Voldemort.

Fawkes- Dumbledore's Phoenix. The particuar phoenix which saved Harry in Chamber of Secrets. He's also in Voldemort's wand, as well Harry's wand.

Well... that's as much info as I think is available about the whole concept. It definitally seems inportant. I can't wait until book five!
