Simple metags that filters can/will recognize and SE's can/will index only with a self reporting regulation system modeled on how we handle spam now. This is the ways to go folks! Also, a great opportunity for the more technical of you to become a footnote in history by getting involved and making it happen. There is a lot of politicking and email work to be done trying to make a standard happen.
I'd like to suggest that "its a two way street" and to have the most influence upon FSC, we also should show them respect and demonstrate that we can offer a solid base of support. How to do this?
We're all link whores anyway, at minimum a text link to their website on an index page would be nice
I'm pretty sure you should be a member to use their banner but a text link is cool. Send traffic to the site we want them to improve and show how many more surfers may be interested.
Second: FSC does run on money/donations so participants in the discussion should be encouraged to at least become members. Many "ma and pa" lists couldn't afford the $300 per website hit for FSC membership. But how about signing up for a personal membership (like $50?)?
Remember FSC also runs successful legal referal services for local cases too:
