Sue here:
I'm looking for clarification.  From the way I read the books, there 
is no way for Snape to *not* be a DE.  If we believe Sirius and 
Voldemort himself, a DE has two options: the Dark Lord forever or 
death.  The only way Snape could free himself is to have Voldemort  
and all of his loyal supporters dead.  As DD said they are all just 
as dangerous as he is.

As far as Voldemort's knowledge of Snape's participation in the Order 
there are really only two options here as well.  Voldemort does not 
know (because as Carol said, there isn't anyone who would know except 
DD) and Snape is loyal to the Order or Voldemort knows Snape is in 
the Order and he is betraying them.

That's my thoughts anyway.
