Board was aware of that, as the first Robert Harris' report included very similar text from Canadian librarian association.
I would then like to point out that there is no practical way to make a value-neutral categorisation scheme to use for filtering.
You can't have your cake and eat it too. Either the scheme is neutral *or* it contains a value judgement so as to be usable for filtering. Logic holds that there is no middle ground here. Further any value judgement once made cannot be culturally neutral in practice.
I'm going to assume in good faith that the board was not aware of this minor flaw. But I can't really stretch it much further.
Could board members please chime in and elucidate?
