After months of frustration my website submission has finally been approved by the DMOZ editorial team and has been put in the respective category.It took 8 months to get the nod ,since it was a free subscription.I had already given up hope and when I asked members from various forums they came up with 2 options a)DMOZ is no longer important and 2)Bribe the editor.Well I didn't believe the first and neither did I try the second one.So people who still have their website waiting for approval in the cue don't get dis heartened just submit it to the most relevant category .Incase your website has 10 keywords and you optimize your website properly for all of them, then try submitting it to the category that has the minimum amount of approvals pending.That will surely help.I did that and was successful.

I almost never bother with DMOZ any more.

1) There is no reliable way to submit anything.
2) No way to check on anything.
3) I don't know of anyone who uses it for search directly.
4) The are soooo slooow to do anything


Given the probably very long list of submissions that never get seen or listed, they are probably very out of date and as a result not as complete or relevant as they should be.

DMOZ is just too frustrating and unreliable to count on.
