DMOZ is a nonsense. As a directory it is useless and badly structured, as a search tool it is bug-ridden and ineffective. One of my sites has been waiting 17 months for review, another 6 months. Many of the sites that are actually in there are appalling, both in content and in presentation. I have no interest in having my sites in the directory, it's simply the link from the associated PR6/7 pages that I want. I have no idea what the editors actually do, but whatever it is it clearly isn't reviewing sites.
