I have to say that the possibility terrifies me. I think they are all 
better off just letting Hagrid get loaded in his cabin. I can't think 
of a worse person to trust with secret information. Another reason I 
hope Hagrid dies in the next book. He's a nice guy, but honestly, 
he'll end up inadvertantly killing them all if he's let into OoP.>>

My answer:

Pg 174 (US version) Moody shows Harry pics of the old OOP - Hagrid is in the pic - so we have canon for his being in the old order at least.  I can't recall if he's mentioned as a current member or not. Anyone have canon for that?
