[EN] Transparency by default rule for document sharing / [ES] Regla de transparencia por defecto para documentos compartidos
[EN] Rather than specifying the documents that need to be open (which might be an endless task) the association should adopt a transparency by default rule for document sharing. Meaning any document that's not shared should be backed by a good reason not to open it to the public.
[ES] En lugar de especificar una lista de documentos (cuentas, estatutos, etc.) que tiene que ser transparentes (una tarea que es imposible de completar), la organización debería de adoptar una regla de "transparencia por defecto". Deberá de justificarse la existencia de cualquier documento que no sea compartido/publicado.

Conversation with Pau Parals
Which organitzational space will decide whether it is justified or not? Maybe, as a general rule we can define some criteria that define wheter it should be public or not. I think that if we establish a criterion, the possible evaluation would be more objective.
You are right @paarals, but this solution is here just to avoid and endless list of possible justifications. The rule now is "everything has to be open, if not, however is in charge of the document has to explain why". I understand that the only difficulty here is "who must accept the explanation"? As a rule of thumb I suggest it is the organ above and the whole community otherwise.
