OK, I stopped running in circles and threw together this draft statement-type-thing.

Feel free to say it's shite, if necessary. I just thought it might be a start. Now I have to get back to work.

We, as adult webmasters are eager to prevent minors from accessing our material.

We believe that a rating system, rather than an AVS, is the best way to do this.

The results of a poll reveal that a majority of webmasters favor a simple meta tag as the best way to prevent children from accessing sites that are obviously adult. This is a simple self-rating system that can be easily adopted by adult webmasters and can, we believe, be used in addition to the existing ICRA PICS rating system.

The ICRA system can be used to rate “borderline” sites that may need more specific labeling, as an alternative to, or in addition to, the simple meta tag.

We are prepared to lobby other webmasters to take up labeling and will encourage the use of labels through rules on linklists and TGPs.

I also had the idea about affiliate programs asking affiliates to label their sites, but that's just another vague thought...

Edit: Maybe this post belongs in the label poll thread. And maybe ICRA doesn't want statements sent to their "invitation only" meetings. My apologies if this post is kind of off topic.
