How often are categories updated?

Dear Editors,

Two days ago, I submitted my website <URL removed> in the following category Reference:Education:International:Language_Schools:French since DB Linguistics Inc is a language school located in Ottawa Canada where French as Second Language and English as Second Language are taught (more French than English). However, I noticed that the last update was done on Monday, August 15th 2011. Is it just because nobody has submitted any website for a while?
How often is this category reviewed/updated? How long should I wait before submitting my website again?

Thank you very much for your time and your assistance.

You might have misunderstood our objectives and how we operate here. ODP is a volunteer organisation building a directory as a hobby. Editors edit where they wish, when they wish and as much as they wish within the constraints of their permissions. We have no schedules or systems to force people to do work that they don't volunteer to do. ODP is not primarily a free listing service for website owners and it does not attempt to process their listing suggestions within the time scales desired by them.

Some volunteer will process your listing suggestion in time but we can't predict who or when that might be. Elapsed times can range from a few days to a few years. There is no need to re-suggest your website and doing so could be counter-productive because a later suggestion overwrites any earlier one.

Thank you very much for the explanation.
