This would appear to indicate the opposition is to *any* personal image filter per the Board resolution, and the category-based proposal additionally as an example of such rather than as the main topic of the vote. I think that says "should be scrapped" pretty blindingly clearly.
The literal translation of what was being voted on:
"Persönliche Bildfilter (Filter, die illustrierende Dateien anhand von Kategorien der Wikipedia verbergen und vom Leser an- und abgeschaltet werden können, vgl. den vorläufigen [[Entwurf]] der Wikimedia Foundation) sollen entgegen dem Beschluss des Kuratoriums der Wikimedia Foundation in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia nicht eingeführt werden und es sollen auch keine Filterkategorien für auf dieser Wikipedia lokal gespeicherte Dateien angelegt werden."
"Personal image filters (filters, which hide illustrating files based on categories and which can be turned on and off by the reader, see the preliminary [[draft]] by the Wikimedia Foundation) should, contrary to the Board's decision, not be introduced in the German Wikipedia, and no filter categories should be created for locally uploaded content."
The [[draft]] link pointed to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Personal_image_filter
So it was pretty closely tied to the mock-ups, just like the "referendum" was.
