Dmoz is a scam, inundated with enough self-promoting, self interested webmasters, continually jockying the listings to make sure their keyword laden descriptions appear prominently, and the names of other sites are devalued compared to their own. I've submitted 100's of sites since it's inception, all following the rules.
I've had one or two sites accepted in obscure categories, and that's about it.
That given, there are a few honest editors, somewhere there... good luck finding them tho...
I always thought it was funny how my sites were good enough for top link sites, and avs sites, but not dmoz.
Funnier yet how a lot of the webmaster I knew who were editors couldn't make it in the biz, and vanished
If you suck up the right way, then you'll get listed, perhaps
When it started, it was a great source of traffic, according to those who got in on the action, I have a couple domains which I bought that had listings, they get maybe 1-2 hits per day from dmoz and 6-7 hits from associated search engines
Maybe you have to grease the palms of those in the know ;) that's probably what I was doing wrong... no grease
