Del :
One possibility is that DD or someone of the Order comes and takes 
him somewhere, to teach him (and Ron and Hermione) a very useful 
skill : how to Apparate. Think of the number of times in OoP where 
some kind of escort had to be given to Harry to go from some place 
to another. Think of what would have happened if Harry could simply 
have Apparated to Grimmauld Place and found Sirius safe there. Think 
of how things would have turned in the DoM if the kids could simply 
have Apparated away. I don't think DD would care about the Trio not 
being of age. They are obviously talented enough (the DA proved it) 
to master even such a difficult trick as Apparating, the War is on, 
and the kids need to be independent and mobile. If I were DD, I'd 
teach them how to Apparate, pronto !! And since this can't be done 
at Hogwarts, it has to be done during the coming summer holidays, 
and preferably not at the Dursleys ;o)
