I wonder to what extent the Order as a whole knew the Sith were back and that Dooku was one of them. Obviously The Council and Anakin knew by RotS, but did the average Jedi have a clue? Was Obi-Wan sworn to secrecy about who/what he and Qui-Gon had faced on Naboo?

Obviously the Jedi wouldn't want to spread it around to people outside the Order that Dooku was now a Sith. Despite leading the opposition, Mace was defending him as late as AotC and his bust had a place of honor as one of the Lost 20 in the Jedi Archives. Bad enough that the general public thought that the Order (and the head of the Order at that) had raised a traitor. They would never live it down if it got out that they had raised an evil wizard.

How would the knowledge that one of their own had gone so catastrophically Dark Side effect the Order? Especially considering that he was Master Yoda’s former padawan? Would it make them question their beliefs in Yoda and the system or just strengthen them? They had to know he was at least working with Dark Siders considering he had Ventress running around being evil on his behalf. They would have considered it their righteous duty to kill him just for being Dark, but for being a Sith?
