A) orientation
B) discussion
C) decision
D) implementation
E) judging

The group is actively discussing ideas and evaluating them, which is typical of the discussion stage. This stage is characterized by members sharing their thoughts and opinions, and discussing potential solutions or approaches to the task at hand. While there may be some planning and evaluating happening at this stage, it is not as focused as it would be in later stages such as decision or implementation. Additionally, the group expressing commitment suggests that they are not just in the orientation stage, where goals and tasks are being established, but are further along in the process.
