Does anyone know if DMOZ weight still makes a difference (SEO)?
Its just a link like any other link. It will help your SEO like any other link.

And are the editors still as swamped or are listings moving more quickly now
Depends if you think DMOZ is a link listing service for webmasters or not. Editors do not see their jobs as processing submissions. Submissions are just one way (the most ineffiicent way) for an editor to do their jobs. Some editors choose to totally ignore the submitted sites and use other sources (eg via Google search) to find sites to list. So, as such, the editors are never really "swamped". DMOZ is listing more than several 1000 sites a months now (of which only about half were ever submitted in the first place), so yes listings are moving making DMOZ still the fastest growing directory.
