Google's cache vs. ODP database

W

wunderteam

My site Toppest.com was added to ODP on or about June 16. If you look at Google's cache, you can see the listing for Toppest.com:
Google cache
Please note the appearance of two other sites "News Nation" and "Queer News," neither of which are affiliated with my site. Note also that on the bottom of the page it says "Last updated on June 16."

Now, view the current page on ODP:
Headline Links
Note that my site Toppest.com is gone, as are the other two sites "News Nation" and "Queer News." Note that the current version of the page shows that it was updated on June 10, a full 6 days before Google's cached version. Also note that a dead site "TheNewsForum," which was not listed in the June 16 version in Google's cache, has now apparently been reinstated, and is in the current version of the page from June 10.

Huh? What happened here, and what should I do? Do I need to reapply, or was this a technical glitch that is being worked on? I would appreciate your opinions/suggestions. Thanks.

The servers of DMOZ are being upgraded. As a result the public pages at dmoz.org are temporary based on an old backup. Expectations are that everything will return to normal within the next week or so.
 

This news of the public data being old has been out for weeks now. Sorry you missed it.
