Mozilla's [Working open][] FAQ came out of a 2013 [Practicing Open][] talk and has the following to say under **Open vs. Transparent** about moving from "passively transparent" to "open" (emphasis added):

- **transparent**: Public, but not necessarily enabling participation.
- **passively transparent**: Not private; decisions aren’t actively hidden, but are difficult to locate. They may not even be documented. This is usually not done intentionally.
- **actively transparent**: **Everything is written down, is easily searchable and is locatable by interested parties.** This requires intentional, sustained effort.
- **open**: **Public and participatory. This requires structuring efforts so that "outsiders" can meaningfully participate (and become "insiders" as appropriate).**
