Here are two tips for people trying to get listed in DMOZ:

#1) MAKE SURE YOU ARE SUBMITTING TO THE PROPER CATEGORY. Sorry if I am shouting but people submitting to the wrong categories is a MAJOR cause of delay in getting sites listed.
#2) Don't decide you're going to build a hardcore teen site and then go submit it to the hardcore teen gallery category. Instead, browse for a category that has very few links AND an editor listed. Yes, those categories get less traffic but getting 25 hits/day from a rarefied niche is better than getting 0 hits/day to your teen hardcore gallery which is sitting at the bottom of a list of 138,000 unreviewed sites.

Actually, I can combine both of those tips into one: Find an underserved category with an editor and then build a site that fits the category perfectly.
