Let me add another perspective to the perceived openness at The World
Bank. I have noticed that they *now* publish considerably more documents
that used to be 'internal' and/or 'confidential' than they used to. I
have remarked to colleagues that this was one manifest difference between
Wolfensohn and his predecessors. As a researcher, author and professor,
I welcome the availability of documents which I previously had to obtain
from friends at the Bank!
