"Sue presented a proposal: that the Board send a letter to the
community acknowledging opposition to the filter idea; that the idea
of a category-based system be dropped, as it is problematic and highly
controversial, but that staff continue discussions with the community
about how to build a system that would meet the Board's objective
[...]"

Pathetic, bordering on barking insane. If that is how people over
there read the situation, the are in for a rude
awakening. Again the corporate "we hear you" language, but not hearing
a bloody thing. Category shmategory.
It isn't the method the community is against, it is the whole frigging
priniple of the thing. Wake up and smell the
coffee.
