According to Associate Professor Bjorn Landfeldt. The CleanFeed was/is the
British Telecom's corporate feed (complying with that organisation's corporate
policies) that is now being discussed in a wider context.

The talk was useful. He provided a brief history of the politics of Internet
Filtering in Australia. Raised issues about reflecting changing values embodied
in black-lists and the way ACMA distributes the list and the way filtering
software vendors incorporate the lists into their packages.
He did say his slides from Friday afternoon's talk would be made available
online - but they don't seem to be here yet:
