Hmm, a clickable link, as requested in the forum guidelines, would be http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Home_and_Garden/Furniture/Handcrafted/

The site is awaiting review there, along with about 100 others.

Sorry about not giving you a clickable link. I am trying to help this client get into the DMOZ. Any ideas or suggestions on who to contact. If there are 100 others waiting it seems there must be a logjam there. Client is very anxious. Thanks for your help in getting this pushed through !

You have already done everything you can to get the site listed in that category by suggesting the site. There is no "express approval" method. The purpose of these forums is not to allow people to jump the line, but to inform submitters of status.

The only additional thing you could do is to volunteer to edit some category of the ODP. More editors sharing the workload might mean faster review times for everyone, including your site.

Otherwise, you'll just have to wait, just like the other people waiting for their sites.

Now if your client has a physical presence in Wimberly, TX (it looks like he does), you might suggest the site in http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Texas/Localities/W/Wimberley/Business_and_Economy/Shopping where the backlog is much smaller, and the wait might be shorter. The Regional listing decision should be independent of your Shopping branch listing.

Thanks for your suggestions - he worries about the local because he sells worldwide and is trying to do better on the big G in the general terms there. Will give him your comments and suggestions though.
