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!
