In the non-people legal entity realm, there are even distinctions between what may be made private and what must be public. A large multinational corporation must make much more information public than does a one-man consulting shop, but they are both non-people legal entities. And while there may be few or no jurisdictions making distinctions between the "privacy" or "secrecy" requirements of various sized, various functioned organizations, it doesn't mean there cannot be or never will be any. So I agree with Ross. Whether info about an org is non-public is a policy issue. -andy
