No change, sorry.

We are well and truly ribbed for your pleasure. Thank you.

Thanks for bumping the thread to the top - the forums are quite busy of late and sometimes we miss requests - sorry about that. This category is extremely backlogged - are you sure that one of the subcategories doesn't fit your site well? A submission to that category with the date you mention still awaits editorial review in that category.

No change, I'm afraid. It still awaits review.

Reviewing editors have declined to list the site, since it is of a type that we do not consider listable according to the ODP guidelines. Sorry.

Yes, definitely. Please use this thread and you are welcome to come back at intervals greater than one month from the date of the last status request. Thanks

No change, I'm afraid.

A submission of that date is awaiting editorial review in that category. Thanks.

You have just changed your question. It is possible for a company to have a listing in a Regional category, if the company has a regional interest, and then additionally in a so-called "Topical" (i.e. non-Regional) and then, for every language that the site is written in which is not English, an entry in a category in the "World" tree. Each of these should be for the same URL, though. For every guideline in the ODP there are exceptions, some more exceptional than others. Looking for hard-and-fast regulations would be a futile activity, in my opinion.

No change, I'm afriad - the submission still awaits review.

Nowhere on this forum, I'm afraid. I would suggest that you look at forums devoted to Web Masters. A good starting point for this would be sites mentioned in http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Chats_and_Forums/ Hope this helps.

An update request is pending editor review in that category. I should warn you though that the description you requested is far from being guideline-compliant for the ODP and will not get accepted - trying to repeat the keywords "custom chocolate" many times just plain won't happen. I can't comment on the rest of the update - it will need to wait for an editor more familiar with the subject. Thanks.

OK - here's something you can do - CALM DOWN. You are right - that corner of the directory does not get a lot of interest and, since we are a volunteer organisation, we rely on interest of editors to review sites. If it is so important to you to be listed, I would suggest you look at other means of promotion, because a time-to-review here is definitely not something we can predict.

Still no change, I'm afraid.

Corrine - apologies for that - sometimes we just look at the day and the month Your suggestion of 03/Dec/2002 still awaits review in the category you name, but you are listed in category http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Maryland/Localities/O/Olney/Business_and_Economy This category, as I'm sure you can imagine, is extremely backlogged with suggestions - your site is by far not the oldest.
